Would support that, could paint the other one red and name it something fast and/or silly. Just for contrast, a historical disaster and a "red makes it go faster" joke.

We can name individual zeppelins "Icarus", "Hindenburg", "Titanic" and the like, and then the whole group we can call "Deff Skwadron".

Countervote. Especially for the Deff Skwadron thingy, which is just silly. Also, painting them red, which is also silly, and counterproductive to the Zepellin's functioning.

I can agree with the Hindenburg and the Icarus, but the Titanic is a ship. Keep it for our battlecruiser. On a sidenote, I'd prefer we call one the Graf Zeppelin.

I heartily approve of all four.

Though Titanic was a ship indeed. Maybe find another, funnier name ?

Supporting the above, a zeppelin called the Titanic, funny.

And painting it red is meant to be silly, so is naming them after things that ended in disaster, fine with you being against it but, I don't think painting it red is counter to any functioning, not like these are stealth zeppelins (but that would be a sight to see) that need to remain whatever colour they are so they aren't seen and shot out of the sky.

In order to get a Zeppelin to function properly, the expansion of the gas should be limited during the flight. This means that the temperature should be constant. This is the primary reason that the Hindenburg was painted in the slightly flammable silvery paint, and that all other Zeppelins are either painted in a reflective color, or white. Red is a pretty bad idea. Not as bad as black, but quite bad.

On a side note, if you want to name them after things that resulted in real disasters, name them after the USS Makron and USS Akron.

I see, that was educational, thank you for correcting me, sorry. Akron is a neat name btw.

We can always have our zeppelins' canopies hung with colorful and/or insulting banners that will be kept rolled up while the zeppelin is grounded and deployed while it is in flight.

I personally vote that we have a "Deff Skwadron" of "Hindenburg", "Akron", "Graf" and "Led"
