Before all the airship got a number based on length, Ascender 36 is 36 feet long for example. This became a problem when switching to metric. Is Ascender 100 called Ascender 28 in the UK?\u00a0 To simplify it all we gone to sequential system. The new 94 foot airship is Ascender 9 because it&#8217;s the ninth one we&#8217;ve built.\u00a0 We are not going back to change the names of the older airship. Upon that path lays chaos.
