AKHENATEN-CLASS
Type: Rigid airship
Passenger Capacity: 60
Crew Complement: 12
Usage: Civilian transportation, experimental
Engines: 3x Turboprops
Designer: Heinrich Blanchard
Parent Company: Kindler Aerospace
Appearances in Sunrise: RAS Akhenaten
Other notes: The Akhenaten-class is notable for its unique heated-helium lift system, which is powered by a small hydrogen envelope. The Akhenaten is also outfitted with a small airplane which can reattach to the ship in-air. Maximum passenger count assumes some paying passengers may be lodged in excess crew cabins.
STRADIVARIAN-CLASSType: Rigid airship
Passenger Capacity: 12 (plus auditorium)
Crew Complement: 12
Usage: Civilian concert touring
Engines: 2x Piston Engines
Designer: Marcus Sturgeon, Lila Astor
Parent Company: Astor Airlines
Appearances in Sunrise: RAS Stradivarian
Other notes: Some auditorium seating can be converted to sleeping space. The Stradivarian’s atypical envelope configuration is compensated for by the presence of two ballast envelopes which can be filled with atmospheric air. Concert capacity greatly exceeds normal passenger capacity, but the ship does not have sufficient lodging areas to carry large numbers of passengers full-time.
