An elongated balloon of cylindrical form with pointed ends is constructed of solid steel plates, and is preferably about 414 feet long. The lifting power is obtained by producing a vacuum in the balloon, and the propulsion is obtained by ejecting air against the atmosphere. Aëroplanes are provided on either side, and the car is suspended in such a manner that it may be adjusted longitudinally below the balloon.

Described by Brewer and Alexander as similar to Patent GB-1891-8142 by de Bausset.
