92 meters! World’s largest airship prepares for its inaugural flight

By Zou Luxiao (People's Daily Online)    03:05, August 11, 2016

The 92-meter airship Airlander 10, the world’s largest aircraft, made its debut for the first time to an outdoor test in Bedfordshire, Britain, on local time August 8, 2016.

The team explained that the hardest part is docking the colossal flying machine in and out of the hangar. As the giant airship glided out of the hangar to the outdoor for the first time, we can expect it to take off to the sky very soon. But the exact date remains pending, said the team.
