Ferguson HFRMM Airship

Modern High Fineness Ratio Airship

Success in the realm of airships lies in properly integrating the disciplines of aerodynamics, economics and physics – resulting in a modern airship that applies modern design, materials and technologies and integrates them into a proven Concept of Flight Operations like that which was proven and perfected in the first three decades of the 20th century.

Airships: Rooted in proven technology, advanced with modern materials and flight systems.

By designing and building a modern airship correctly, the problems of flight safety, structural integrity, low speed handling and control (positive full axis handling and control at air speeds under 3 knots) and economics (capital and operating costs) can be successfully resolved.

A Modern Cargo Airship

A high fineness ratio cargo airship is a modern advanced design airship that uses some of the best design characteristics from the past history of dirigibles such as having a long fineness ratio for providing best aerodynamic/buoyancy efficiencies versus payload. The inherent core design feature of the Cargo Airship System (CAS) is a long slender cigar like airship that can provide net payload capability from 20 tons to over 500 tons depending upon overall proportions (size).

Modern High Fineness Ratio Airship

Ferguson HFRMM Airship

While the design, materials and technologies that enable flight have changed a lot since the 1920’s, the fundamental laws of aerodynamics, economics and physics have not. Success in the realm of airships lies in properly integrating the disciplines of aerodynamics, economics and physics – resulting in a modern airship that applies modern design, materials and technologies and integrates them into a proven Concept of Flight Operations like that which was proven and perfected... Read More
