heres the wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piasecki_PA-97_Helistat
- TL;DR: Build quality was absolute shit and it literally shook itself apart on takeoff, killing 1 pilot and injuring 4 others

Lakehurst NJ has a rough track record when it comes to airships.

Drones can now do the loitering job of blimps but without being mumakil ass large.
