Should this only count as actual airships, not mysteriously levitating non-airship... UF Os?
Also, for the real life section, they need to put in more info on the Graf Zeppelin, 1929-1940. That shit is unreal. Three YEARS spent in the air, over a million miles, untold thousands of passengers, circumnavigated the globe in a fraction of the time it took by plane, and an expedition to the north pole. The NORTH. FREAKING. POLE. In a unmodified luxury liner! If that isn't a Cool Airship then nothing is.

I agree with limiting this trope to actual airships. The SHIELD Helicarrier, for example, belongs on Airborne Aircraft Carrier, not here.
