Topic 13: The Return of the Zeppelin



The determinants of demand are prices of related goods, expected future prices, income, expected future income and credit, population, and preferences. And for the determinants of supply, prices of factors of production, prices of related goods produced, expected future prices, number of suppliers, technology, and state of nature. According to the video, we can know that they successfully use preferences to let the customer get interested. They also successfully use their technology to improve air ship, which will be less likely for it to crash like Hindenberg disaster. For Zeppelin, the producer had change the gas inside the air ship in to helium. Besides, they had also installed some engine around the body of the air ship to support it. According to the video, since we know that there only three air ships in the world, and in US, Brian Hall is the only company that is running the air ship business; we can say that this market is a monopoly. In my opinion, I would want to try this kind of air ship. Although I might still afraid about the accident might happen just like Hindenberg, I would want to take a look at this enormous ship and have a great view through the sky, unless it needs to cost an amount of money.
