Not a real blimp, as the preceding GZ-20A bearing the same registration, but a new semi-rigid airship filled with Helium. There are three Zeppelin NT in the Goodyear fleet, and all were assembled at Wingfoot Lake in Northeast Ohio. This is the last one, completed in 2018 and christened on 30 August 2018. Notable is the propulsion and maneuvering system, consisting of two side-mounted and tiltable propellers (tilted upward in the photo) and one tail-mounted tiltable propeller (tilted downward in the photo).
