Inventor L. Mike Kelly and former Jet Propulsion Labs (JPL) and B2 Bomber design team manager and engineer David L. Swain of Malibu Beach, California are on a mission to bring a new 150 foot (45.72 meter) long, 32 foot (9.75 meter) wide, 2 turbofan, jet engine powered helium/fixed wing/rotary wing airship to market. Looks really cool and even cooler that it was pitched their concept to Lockheed Martin’s Dr. Robert Boyd at the R&D Hanger in Palmdale, California and garnered positive feedback on the originality of their advanced airship concept and design calling it “the best potential airship design he had seen to date.”
