That makes me think about luxury such as glass bottoms for sightseeing, bungee jumping (when soaring on an altitude of 2-3 km) and the like. I'd love making an airship cruise. It could descend for Red Sea diving, safari and fly above the Mt. Everest.
I see a lot of possibilities in airships for use as superheavy airlift, sky cranes (transport entire radio transmission masts (30 m height or more) into the desert instead of assembling them on place) and transoceanic luxury transport. I wonder what the rendability would be.
