Dear All:
In preparation to build a little blimp from Bruno, I decided to do this very nice model. There is very little information about these blimps and I presume it has been inspired by airship P.1 (AKA N.1)

Although it is a perceived representation, it is quite fine. The envelope is fusiform instead of an elongated raindrop. The gondola shape is very interesting with paddles instead of propellers and the control surfaces are on the top instead of under the tail. Anyway I will make a few adjustments. First of all I will estimate the overall length of the envelope by a quick and very dirty build, using tape.
