10th International Airship Convention 2015

28 May 2015

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It was a pleasure to see you all at the 10th International Airship Convention in Friedrichshafen last month.  Thank you all for attending; I hope that you enjoyed the event and found some items of interest to you in the range of presentations. My particular thanks go to the individuals, companies and academics who gave presentations, some of whom came from as far as Canada, India and Russia.

One of the purposes of the convention when it began 20 years ago, was to bring like-minded individuals and organisations together to share ideas, to network and to learn, in the hope that with such a forum, a wider re-appraisal of Lighter-than-Air technologies could lead to development of a new industry.  Many of this year’s attendees were not members of the Association, it was gratifying that such a range of ages and professions were represented.

We look forward to your future participation in events and discussions regarding Lighter-than-Air technology, experimentation and projects.

Yours sincerely,

Nigel Hills

Chairman
Airship Association
