" FREE ENERGY? What is UP with all the Zeppelins?"
INTERESTING ✨
Compare a Zepplin to a weather ballon. On the ground, the big envelope is nearly empty and only a small bubble of lifting gas (today mostly helium, but HYDROGEN would work even better) sits at the top. Only that the nearly empty ballon is in clear sight, while in a rigid airship the half full gas bag is hidden behind the rigid hull covering.
With Wartime Zeppelins, fine tuning of lift by adding dynamic lift is possible but limited to maybe 5%-20% of the ship's mass (more for smaller and faster ships and at lower altitude). By growing larger, the mass to volume ratio of Zeppelins decreased, so the latest WW I ships could be built light enough to fly with their gas bags only one third full.
