Usually people ask this because they remember the tragedies of
the past. The Airlander is incredibly safe compared to the blimp
style aircraft of the past. It uses helium, which is an inert gas
that *cannot* catch fire, instead of hydrogen like the R101 and the
Hindenburg. Its hull has three different layers, and one of them is
Vectran, which a material that is five times stronger than steel.
It can fly in high winds of up to 80 knots, the highest level on
the Beaufort wind scale. It has a top speed of 100mph.
No one can (or should) say that any mode of travel is completely
safe. That would just be tempting fate. But it seems clear that
this craft is not going to repeat the tragedies of the past,
because it is better made and there cannot be any Hydrogen
accidents where there is no Hydrogen present.
