I've been painting zeppelins this weekend.  Here's a few of them:

 . . . and the other side.   ;)

     That was a 25th Anniversary print I had on my pc.  I was picking random images from my computer and the internet to see what I could do. 
     I like the zeppelin.  It's great for sightseeing tours.  I've been wanting to make an RTMM version for some time.  I'm not crazy about that green color though.  So I got the idea to use the forum header theme.  Wood.   ???

The RTMM paint job is a great marketing ploy, just moseying up and down the coast line getting the name out there, yuk,yuk. I know you've answered it before, but which lighter than air, airship is that

Hi av8erjm,
It is freeware from 2009.  Its official title is "Flightport Zeppelin NT". 

Authors are:
Model, Panel and Gauges: Thomas Roehl
Airfiles: Joerg Hammes
Lights and Effects:Stefan Medelnik

According to the manual that comes with it, they planned on updating this model from an FS9 conversion to a true FSX native model.  I am going searching for it. Wish me luck.

Edit:  That didn't take long.  Here ya go.  (I use FS Repaint to paint them.)

Here's a link I google'd up.  Try this. ;)

edit 2:  (It looks like the exact same file dates I had already, so no update in last five years.)  That's ok, it works fine anyways, even in P3Dv2.1.

Edit 3:  Hi, Jeff from the future (2020) here.  The Zeppelin was updated for P3Dv4.  Here is the link to download it. - https://www.rikoooo.com/downloads/viewdownload/7/231

Looks great, Jeff!! :)

Maybe.   ;)

(note: This is ONLY the fuselage texture file!  You need to have the zeppelin model installed already.)   ??? :o  Link to download Zeppelin-NT is in Reply #6 above.

Thanks I like having textures that reflect the local area, IE: try to fly aircraft with either N or C numbers, I've dabbled in trying to paint and what have you, but it seems I'm a virtual idiot
