 Transporteon.com -- Zeppelin
A Zeppelin is a type of rigid airship (or dirigible) pioneered by Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin in the early 20th century based on an earlier design by David Schwarz.
Aerial defences against Zeppelins were haphazard and the lack of an interrupter gear in early aircraft meant that the basic technique of downing them was to drop bombs on them.
Zeppelins would now prominently display the Nazi swastika on their fins and occasionally tour Germany to indoctrinate the people with march music and Nazi propaganda speeches from the air.

 ZEPPELIN > Introduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Many have forgotten Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin after whom these ships are named, but very name evokes visions of giant passenger ships voyaging across land and sea.
Three years after the demise of LZ129 Hindenburg, the LZ127 and LZ130 were dismantled in 1940 ending the golden era of the great passenger ships.
In 1997, the Zepplin Luftschifftechnik built a new airship -- the LZ NT.

 Airship Summary
Zeppelin and his partner, Hugo Eckener (1868-1954), used the new airships to found the world's first airline in November 1909.
Zeppelins were eventually used in bombing raids against the British during World War I. Although the actual damages were slight, the massive airships were an effective tool of intimidation.
The zeppelins also proved to be vulnerable to attack by aircraft and antiaircraft guns, especially those armed with tracer bullets.

 Trenches on the Web - Special: Dirigibles, Airships, Zeppelins and Blimps
"Zeppelin" is a proprietary, or trade, name (such as Kodak, Ferris Wheel and Autogiro), and is applied properly only to craft constructed by Luftshiffbau Zeppelin G.m.b.H. or firms licensed to use its patents.
The Los Angeles was built by Luftschiffbau Zeppelin under the reparations terms of the peace treaty and the other two were constructed by the Goodyear-Zeppelin Corporation, formed in 1923 as a subsidiary of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company.
For obvious reason, "Zeppelin" was dropped from the firm's name during World War II and it became Goodyear Aircraft.

 Red Baron II Wish List Zeppelins   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
You could fly (have total control of a zeppelin instead of a plane and toggle between the different stations pilot/ bomber/ gunner1/ gunner2/ gunner3.
I think because of the speed and floating nature of the Zeppelin you should not need to be in the pilot position all the time.
Indeed, I miss scouting for the deadly and high-flying Zeppelins, lurking in clouds at night, suddenly silhouted against the moon with the shift of wind.

 Around the world on a Dream Machine | MetaFilter
Zeppelins and blimps are always at greatest danger near the ground, where air movement is greatly affected by ground obstructions such as tree lines, and large buildings.
The breakup aloft of the Shenandoah, the wreck of the Macon, the wreck of the Akron, and most wrecks of the post WW 1 constructed Zeppelins were situations in which turbulence, either at altitude or near the ground, overcame control inputs.
Zeppelins and blimps are relegated to the fringes of aviation for good reason; they are dangerous aircraft to launch and recover, and aloft, they are frail things with limited, slow response to control inputs, and a narrow margin of safety in all but perfect weather.

Powered by solar panels, Alavi claims that his Zeppelin will create much more reliable phone connections because the signals are unobstructed.
If the Zeppelin does a Hindenburg, the aircraft with the technological gubbins will simply disconnect and fly down to the earth.
