Man people will try anything to anything except trains and boats.
Or sometimes, they will reinvent trains and boats, but worse.

also, see CargoLifter for a similar project around the year 2000 which raised crazy amounts of money and then failed completely because of fundamental problems.
They didn’t fail due to technical problems. At least try to do proper research next time.
They ran out of money. After realising that their original idea wasnt really that realistic and building a cargo airship is really really hard.
…no. Airships are *extremely" sensitive to wind. They could never promise delivery times that short when a bit of a gust on the atlantic could throw them absolutely completely off course. Airships can’t start with “bad” weather. That is: slight winds. They cant land when there is wind. And many airships have been destroyed because of winds. Thats a fundamental problem that the hyperloop guys are going to fix just as much as they did fix the fundamental problems with the hyperloop.
