A type of [[aircraft]], usually cigar-shaped, that floats by means of a large balloon, usually filled with hydrogen or helium. There are three types of dirigibles: * [b]Blimps[/b] have a non-rigid airframe; its shape is maintained by the pressure of the gas within. * [b]Zeppelins[/b] have a rigid airframe which holds its shape even when uninflated. Zeppelins are named after their pioneer, Ferdinand von Zeppelin. * [b]Semi-rigid[/b], a hybrid of the other two. On Danbooru, [[dirigible]] refers to real life floating aircraft; for fantasy airships, see [[airship]]. h4. See also * [[aircraft]] * [[airship]] * [[hot air balloon]] * [[kite balloon]] h4.
