HOYTE VAN HOYTEMA It sounds like a lawn mower, diesel engine.
NOLAN After “Oppenheimer” [2023], I called up my
friends at IMAX. I couldn’t tell them what the movie was yet, but I said if ever we were going to do a film all in IMAX, this is the one. So let’s finish these new cameras, find some kind of soundproofing system. And they engineered this blimp system that we could put the camera in.

諾蘭：拍完《奧本海默》（2023）之後，我打了電話給IMAX的朋友。當時我還不能告訴他們電影是什麼，但我說，如果我們要拍一部全IMAX電影，那就是這部了。所以我們趕緊把這些新攝影機組裝好，再找個隔音系統。他們設計了一個飛艇系統？，我們可以把攝影機放進去。

Tustin Blimp Hangars
These enormous World War II relics are some of the largest wooden structures in the world. https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/tustin-blimp-hangars
The president claims the media outlets “suppress” polls that show how popular he is.
The blimp would be the largest aircraft in the world and would be used for humanitarian missions, getting supplies, food and other necessities to hard-to-reach areas around the globe.
Talking to people in the Home Guard, including Blimps and quite wealthy businessmen, I find everyone completely pro-Russian, though much divided in opinion about the Russian capacity to resist. Typical conversation, recorded as well as I can remember it: -
Wholesale poulterer: “Well, I hope the Russians give them a bloody good hiding.”
Clothing manufacturer (Jewish): “They won’t. They’ll go to pieces, just like last time. You’ll see.”
Doctor (some kind of foreigner, perhaps refugee): “You’re absolutely wrong. Everyone’s underrated the strength of Russia. They’ll wipe the floor with the Nazis.”
Wholesale grocer: “Damn it, there’s two hundred bloody millions of them”.
In British and New Zealand slang a "hiding" may refer to a sound beating. Come here Rangi, I am gonna give you such a hiding.

George Orwell and Tom Wintringham made especially extensive use of the term "blimps", Orwell in his articles[3] and Wintringham in his books How to Reform the Army and People's War, with exactly the above meaning in mind.
In his 1941 essay "The Lion and the Unicorn", Orwell referred to two important sub-sections of the middle class, one of which was the military and imperialistic middle class, nicknamed the Blimps, and characterised by the "half-pay colonel with his bull neck and diminutive brain". He added that they had been losing their vitality over the past thirty years, "writhing impotently under the changes that were happening".[4]
