    The term "spacker" springs to mind.
    Honestly, a zeppelin probably rates in as the 2nd stupidest (actually developed) military aircraft design (after hot air balloons).
    They're slow, extremely vulnerable, expensive and about as stealthy as a freaking cyclone!

            I almost wish somebody would try to use them on me, so I could amuse myself shooting them down with a rocket or two...

              Why use a rocket when you can use biplanes?

                  I'd cruise in a zeppelin. Imagine, flying around in Mach -2 drinking my tea while the Jones tried to foil my plans on getting the Cup of Christ, granting me immortality.

                    Some history textbooks have very good accounts of the failings of zeppelins.

                    What's next?

                        Maybe if we do a historical RP in the time of Leonardo da Vinci.

                          Yeah, and maybe we should include magic in our RPing.

                            You need to Americanize the spelling in your tags, Squebbles.
