History
In Pete's World, (TV: Doomsday [+]Loading...["Doomsday (TV story)"], PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"]) Zeppelins covered the skies of London in February 2007 and were owned by the richest businessmen. They were typically made from a light aluminium alloy. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen [+]Loading...["Rise of the Cybermen (TV story)"])
The Cybus Industries website claimed that Cybus Finance gave people the ability to pay for a trip in a Cybus Airship. The necessity of the service was rationalised in an article published by Cybus. (PROSE: About Cybus [+]Loading...["About Cybus (feature)"])
A Zeppelin owned by John Lumic had a gondola, complete with crew accommodation, such as for when the President and Pete Tyler witnessed Lumic's presentation on "Cybermen". Secretly, Lumic was also capable of transmitting a signal to Londoners' EarPods from a transmitter protruding from the front of his ship; this forcibly brought the humans to Battersea Cyber-factory to be upgraded. John kept at least one brainless Cyberman onboard. Jake Simmonds and Mickey Smith tricked the Cyberman into punching the transmitter controls, releasing the humans from being controlled. The high voltage disabled the Cyberman. This Zeppelin was later used by the Tenth Doctor, Rose Tyler and Pete Tyler as a means of escape from the exploding Battersea Power Station.
