View from cockpit of a Zeppelin NT The Zeppelin NT ( ' Neue Technologie', for new technology) is a class of helium-filled being manufactured since the 1990s by the German company (ZLT) in. The initial model is the NT07. The company considers itself the successor of the companies founded by which constructed and operated the very successful airships in the first third of the 20th century. There are, however, a number of notable differences between the Zeppelin NT and the airships of those days, as well as between the Zeppelin NT and usual non-rigid airships known as. The Zeppelin NT is classified as a. There are various roles for the Zeppelin NT, traditional roles have been used for aerial tourism purposes and for conducting passenger services. The hull surfaces of the aircraft have also been used for purposes.

The Zeppelin NT have also been used for observation platforms, such as for and by television commentators covering major events. Due to their capability for low-vibration flight for up to 24 hours at a time, ZLG considers the airships suitable for research missions for environmental observation, research and natural resources prospecting.

A stipulation had been placed upon the endowment that limited the use of its funds to the field of airships. Over the many years, the investment value of the endowment grew to a point where it had become viable for the funds to be put to use for the purpose of designing, developing, and constructing of a new generation of Zeppelins. In 1988, the first considerations into the technological and economic feasibility of reviving the Zeppelin industry began; this included examinations of historic Zeppelin documentation as well as current designs for airships. In December 1990, a feasibility study and accompanying market research program found an initial sales potential for around 80 Zeppelin airships for purposes such as tourism, advertising, and scientific research.

In mid 1991, the newly formed development team filed several patents on various technologies that would be later used on the subsequent airship, these included propeller arrangements, structure and girder design, and ballonet implementation. In March 1991, a flyable remote control model was demonstrated, which is claimed to have revealed excellent flight characteristics from the onset. In September 1993, the Zeppelin Luftschifftechnik GmbH (ZLT) was founded in Friedrichshafen as a corporate spin-off of the original Zeppelin company to pursue development and production of the new generation of Zeppelins, later known as the Zeppelin NT (New Technology).

By spring 1994, preparatory studies for a full-sized prototype were underway. In 1995, the, Germany's, officially recognized ZLT as a design organisation, and approved new construction regulations for airships. In November 1995, final assembly of the first airship prototype commenced, it was promoted as being the first rigid airship to be produced by the firm since the. In July 1996, the under-construction prototype of the Zeppelin NT 07 was presented to the public and the media. In September 1997, the prototype performed its at Friedrichshafen; piloted by US test pilot Scott Danneker, it flew for a total of 40 minutes. Solaris Performance Tools Pdf Editor.

On 8 August 1998, the Zeppelin NT 07 prototype performed a cross-country flight via., to near, Germany; at the end of this journey, the prototype also accomplished its first masting away from Friedrichshafen upon landing. The test program included noise level measurements, avionics tests, and take-offs and landings.

In October 1999, the prototype completed a 680 km (423miles) journey, its longest distance flight at that point. According to the manufacturer, the Zeppelin NT 07 prototype had proven the technical design by mid 1998, and thus could be applied to production models without major modifications. On 2 July 2000, the centennial of the first flight, the prototype was christened D-LZFN Friedrichshafen by Count Zeppelin’s granddaughter, Elisabeth Veil. In July 2000, the prototype performed a high-profile tour of Germany, travelled more than 3,600 km (2,237 miles) in about 75 flight hours and appearing at the. By December 2000, the flight test programme was completed; during which, the prototype had accumulated in excess of 800 flight hours over roughly 220 flights.
