    In Germany we had a company a few years ago, that had planned to build cargo airships to replace heavyweight transports on streets. The idea was to use it for freights of up to 160 tons of weight.

    Admittedly, it was a financial disaster and the company went bankrupt after a few years. But the limited weight capacity wasn’t the problem.

    At least, we now have a tropical island, due to their failure.
