Abstract

The current view is that airships to be used for transportation would be promising only if they have considerably big scale. But the present author has some doubts. The reason is that numbers of ground crew and airport size expands considerably with airship-scale and that advertisement-income is not taken into account. Only the last factor is considered in this paper. It is found that the advertisement-income would exceed the transportation expenditure for airship of medium to small size. This result will encourage development of airship for commuter transport.
