Fuelless Flight with Air Submarine?

Posted by michael on from the in-this-house,-we-obey-the-laws-of-thermodynamics dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Using the same physics principles as submarines, a new company is planning a fuelless air ship. Recent advances in ultra light and strong materials are making this concept a practical reality." There's no question that changes in buoyancy can be used to propel a vehicle, but "fuelless" is going to be tricky.

    I don't know about you... it looks kewl, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna fly on that thing. Personally, I trust engines, fuel, etc.
