News & Events
Step Forward for Varialift
The development of the varialift principle has taken a new step forward in recent weeks with the start of construction of two varialift units for proof of concept and test purposes.
Where did Varialift come from?
Mr A Handley came up with the idea of Varialift when he was watching a television program about Airships.
He noted that the main problem with the airships of today was that the Airships lacked a total control of take off and landing, along with having to use ballast to keep the Airship in a state of neutral buoyancy.
