Not as large as the Cargolifter, which has only been built as 1:8 model for testing, but still impressing.

I don’t think that the Imperial Star Destroyer qualifies as air ship.

I just stated that there was a more ambitious project that would have worked, but unfortunately ran out of money. I am impressed that Pathfinder 1 was actually built.
Pathfinder 1 is only built at 1:10 scale though, so it’s actually much larger than Cargolifter.
The article states Pathfinder 1 is 124 m long, but does not say that its a 1:10 model. However, Cargolifter CL160 would have been 260 m long.
