Construction will take about 7 months then certification and crew training are planned for early next year, GOODYEAR says says the new blimp wil be larger and faster than current ones as well as more maneuverable and carry more passengers.

Didn't Goodyear say they were no longer going to be operating blimps, that was now going to be contracted out?
