The Star Over London - More about the Zeppelin NT that flies for Stella Artois

© The Guardian

I just got home from a long week in Farnborough (Yes the Airshow was fantastic) and did not have a chance to Blog until now, so there is a lot to catch up. Of course one of the Topics of this week in the media was the Zeppelin airship over London. Before we dive into the many many fantastic photo galleries I want to thank georgehorror for giving me permission to embed this video of the Zeppelin NT arriving in England. We featured a link to it earlier but now we can present you the embedded version. Enjoy!

The guardian known for their airship coverage in the last few month have a beautiful article online called Poetry in motion: over London by airship also featuring a good gallery with some unique pictures of the Zeppelin. The article was also featured in the July 15th Newspaper covering the full double sided (pages 18 and 19) of centre section, featuring the picture you see in this post.

Another outstanding article was published by metro.co.uk not for their writing but for the great video of the airship that they included, featuring an interview with the pilot and some great footage from the flight. Worth watching here.

And of course there were many more:

• The Telegraph has a very nice picture gallery of pictures from within and outside of the Stella Artois Zeppelin as it flies across London. Check it out here.
• The Londonist also featured an article with a gallery of their flight.
• Times Online article called "Zeppelins fly over London" about the Stella Artois also containing a gallery
• Flight International also has a short article on the Zeppelin on their website. Unfortunately they get the title of their post a bit wrong when they say "London’s biggest star is a blimp" because the airship that flies over London is not at all a blimp it's a Zeppelin and has a rigid structure inside, which set's it appart from a blimp and give it the superior ground handling abilities with a ground crew of just 3 men that you don't get from the Goodyear blimps or other traditional blimps.

But the mainstream media is not the only place to find great pictures of the Zeppelin. Flickr for example contains already many many pictures of the Zeppelin. Check out this slideshow for the most recent pictures.
