OK. PLEASE pardon me if this one has already been brought up. But, does anyone have any corroborating info about this quote by Erdberg from an Air & Space Smithsonian article dated 12/18/09 - “We said, ‘Duration, duration, duration,’ measured in weeks. That’s what our soldiers need now,” says Erdberg. Sanswire-TAO conducted their latest demonstration of their airship on December 17 and 18 in Stuttgart. “We’ve built about 30 prototypes and have flown them thousands of times,” he says.

My real question from this quote stems from 2 items - 30 prototypes? Flown them thousands of times? Really! Has anyone on this board seen this progression documented?

Thanks.
