Zeppelin NT D-LZZF approaching the landing field at the Flugwerft Schleißheim, an outpost of the Deutsches Museum dedicated to aeronautics and the history of Schleißheim airfield.
This is a semi-rigid airship, not a blimp. The Zeppelin NT family of airships belong to the largest active airships and are currently the only ones with a rigid inner structure (the original Zeppelin airships did also have a rigid outer structure).
Schleißheim airfield (EDNX) is the oldest still operating airfield in Germany. It was founded in 1912 for the Königlich-Bayerische Fliegertruppe (Royal Bavarian Flying Corps).

ZLT Zeppelin Luftschifftechnik, a German-based company, develops, builds and markets
the Zeppelin NT. This modern airship is a descendant from the helium-filled aircraft that
flew around the beginning of the previous century.
The new Zeppelin NT is a unique piece of engineering. It is 75m long, 19.5m wide,
weighs only 1,900kg and can reach a maximum speed of 125km per hour.
The Zeppelin NT is a multi-purpose passenger airship, certified by European and US-American
aviation authorities to transport up to 15 passengers or up to 2 tons of mission equipment.

And if you feel that you can't go on
And your will's sinkin' low
Just believe and you can't go wrong
In the light you will find the road
This is a Zeppelin NT, D-LZFN, named "Friedrichshafen", landing at the landing field at the Flugwerft Schleißheim, an outpost of the Deutsches Museum dedicated to aeronautics and the history of Schleißheim airfield.
This is a semi-rigid airship, not a blimp. The Zeppelin NT family of airships belong to the largest active airships and are currently the only ones with a rigid inner structure (the original Zeppelin airships did also have a rigid outer structure).
The airship caught here, D-LZFN is not the first prototype of the Zeppelin NT family, this here is the former D-LZZR which was sold to Japan in 2004 and after return to Germany in 2011 it was re-registered as D-LZFN.
The original D-LZFN was the first prototype, christened on the name "Friedrichshafen" on July 2nd, 2000 by Elisabeth Veil, the at that time 80-year old granddaughter of Ferdinand von Zeppelin. the inventor of the rigid airships. That airship suffered tornado damage in 2007 and was dismantled, so the registration became available again.
Just the day after D-LZFN dropped by, D-LZNT, a sister ship, was also at Schleißheim airfield.
Here is a shot of D-LZZF, another sister ship, taken some time ago at the same airfield.
Schleißheim airfield is the oldest still operating airfield in Germany. It was founded in 1912 for the Königlich-Bayerische Fliegertruppe (Royal Bavarian Flying Corps).

early in the morning, out of the hangar, a blimp is made ready for new adventures. The most beautiful way of flying.
