The author, a dual-rated Master Army Aviator and a FAA certificated commercial airship pilot, takes a fresh look at potential application of the new generation airships to today's military missions. The paper presents a history of lighter-than-air flight. Application potential to current and projected military missions is then discussed with conclusions and recommendations offered.
