Ever thought of using Static/ Ion drives; basically high voltage lines strobed over the wings surfaces?

I'd be too tempted to put blinking lights all the way around the outside of it. Then, wait for a million uploads on Youtube about UFO's in that area.

Basically, this is a dirigible.

haha cute

Buckminster Fuller point out that one could move a mountain with an enclosed sphere, of the right size, it would enclose enough of the atmosphere, if light enough, would take on a negative pressure inside and gain lift.

No engine is powering it. The objects that are shaped this way, with this balance of weight, and shape, when in a windy day, or in a non windy day, will flow very stably. The example was given in "The Deltoid Pumkin Seed" by John McPhee is "that a sphere when released in an atmosphere, will rise directly up, and a board of wood, when released underwater, will float up, and slide to the side at a rate that balances with the shape and the medium/object density ratio.
Get designing!

The Unleaded Zeppelin runs on buoyancy.

In this case, with a fishing string! The idea of the original concept was that the airship could change density, via different air temperatures, solar reflectivity, venting hydrogen, capturing moisture, or compression--or some other means I'm not yet aware of.
These complications caused me to go the the tubular design.
