Lisätietoja:

The Goodyear GZ-22 was a non-rigid airship designed and built by Goodyear Aerospace in Akron, Ohio, in the 1980s. It was the first airship to use a fly-by-wire control system, which allowed for greater maneuverability and stability. The GZ-22 was also the first airship to have a pressurized cabin for passengers and crew, as well as a retractable landing gear.
The GZ-22 was used by Goodyear as a promotional and advertising vehicle, flying over major sporting events and displaying messages on its LED sign. The GZ-22 was also used for scientific research and military surveillance. The GZ-22 was retired in 1999 after a fatal accident that claimed the lives of two crew members. The GZ-22 was the last airship to be built by Goodyear in Akron, and the only one of its kind.
