Article about prototype, never-commercialized product of now-defunct company created in 2004 "after reading Slashdot article". Company seems to have been a mix of "startup business venture" and "scheme to defraud investors". What things a Web search turns up appear to be either regurgitation of press releases from the company, or stuff copied from this WP article. No news mentions post-2000s. Fails WP:V, WP:NOTABILITY.

- For context, I disputed this PROD since it did not appear right procedural. As I linked in my edit summary, AP appears to have covered it "Floating an idea: Replace ugly towers with high-flying blimps". IgelRM (talk) 15:26, 13 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Delete. No evidence this passes WP:NCORP with WP:SUSTAINED coverage beyond a brief flurry of PR-driven coverage around its launch. The article itself is highly speculative and fails WP:CRYSTALBALL. Dclemens1971 (talk) 00:28, 19 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Ineligible for soft deletion.
