Airships to service remote Alaskan sites
Straightline Aviation, a UK-based hybrid airship owner and operator, recently announced a strategic partnership with PRL Logistics Inc, to introduce the world's first heavy-lift hybrid airships the LMH-1. Developed and built by Lockheed Martin, the LMH-1 has the ability to land on virtually any surface including snow, ice, gravel and even water. These football field-sized airships are expected to provide low cost and environmentally friendly solutions for moving freight and personnel to the most isolated regions of Alaska and northern Canada. Hybrid airships combine the technology of lighter-than-air aircraft with airplanes, helicopters and hovercraft.
