World's longest aircraft gets full production approval

The UK-based Hybrid Air Vehicles (HAV), the maker of world's longest aircraft Airlander 10, has received the Civil Aviation Authority's approval to go into full production with the model. This comes after the prototype, Airlander 10, was retired post successful testing. "The prototype served its purpose...providing us with the data we needed to move forward", HAV CEO Stephen McGlennan said.
