Great video, I wonder if it would be possible to use solar panels and electric motors to assist the performance. If you want to see more on modern airships, past, present and future see: ---.airshipblimp dot kom or if you just want a helium sniffing laugh try ---.airship.me the worlds only lighter than air comedy site, with lots of funny pictures and U tube links fit for all the family. Regards Bond, James Bond. (Skyship blimp pilot in a View to a Kill)
I had just watched this yesterday, with extreme fascination, then you sent a link today! I'd love to learn more about this vehicle and the folks who made it. I would LOVE to hook up this cycling mechanism with a large version of one of my airships (Google hyperblimp).
A quand la traversée de l'Atlantique ? Combien de jours te faudra-t-il et que penserais-tu d'un départ commun avec Greg Kolodziejzyk (adventuresofgreg DOT com) qui projette de faire sa traversée en 40 jours sur un VPH aquatique ? Jean-Charles
Je ne serais pas contre une nouvelle expérience de vol. Les quelques minutes passées sur le Zeppy restent un souvenir inoubliable.
De mon côté, je me suis préparé pour Paris-Brest-Paris en réalisant notamment un brevet de 600 km. Extrême ! Si jamais tu fais une version biplace, penses à moi ! ;-)
ET, phone home.

Dear All,
I have some question about psychology:
(1) Why do we love flying?
(2) Why do we enjoy to fly on a human powered airship in this "jet-age"?
(3) What is the joy and fun to fly on a human powered airship?
(4) Why is the motivation for us to fly on an human powered flying mechine?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

it looks just like a flying machine from the days of old... just goes to show how much airship tech has stagnated over the past 130 years...

Dear All,
i have some questions about psychology:
(1) Why do we want to design and to fly human powered aeroplane while we have jet engine?
(2) Why do we enjoy to fly in the same way as cycling a bike?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

"The video is very inspiring, but the "vehicle" is not a real alternative."
Which makes me wonder... It works but how much did this machine cost to build and maintain?

Hi, I will say yes
our major problem when I fly with the pedal, is the wind.5 kt is a maximum, but you need good legs, and enought space to make a turn,
but when there is no wind, you can do what ever you want, and it s a lot of fun.
have a good day
