BONUS - Interview with Thibault Proux of Flying Whales

Up Ship! The Airship History Podcast

It was great to interview Thibault Proux from Flying Whales, one of the companies making the biggest strides towards bringing large airships back to our skies. Flying Whales are developing what will be the largest aircraft in the world - the LCA60T, 200 metres long, 50 metres wide and capable of carrying 60 tons of cargo to areas of the world with little to no infrastructure. Thibault has been there almost since the beginning. We talk about the challenges both of building new aircraft and of developing effectively an entirely new industry, about the problems ‘load exchange’ poses for airship designers and the solutions Flying Whales have developed, and about how you should always follow your passion!
