Does this use gas to travel? If not then it is not a dirigible.  Rolandius Paladin (talk - contr) 11:26, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

I believe it doesn't. Looking at the top of it you can see obvious holes in the 'roof'. Gas would easily escape. And - like most other Scourge constructions - it is most likely fueled by the magical crystal. - Dragola 18 Aug

Where does it say that a dirigible must use gas? g0urra[T҂C] 11:31, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Just looking at the definition and how they work. A zeppelin/dirigible/airship uses a gas, less dense than the surrounding air, and fills some kind of cavity. Contrast that with aircraft that use wings or rotors only. If it uses gas then its one type and if it doesn't its a different type. I don't think you would call a zeppelin a type of gyrocopter or a biplane a type of dirigible right?  Rolandius Paladin (talk - contr) 12:29, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
