I believe “airship” is just an antiquated term for “airplane.” I have heard characters in movies of the thirties refer to their craft as “my ship.” General news reporters seem to be uneducated as to the technical aspects of the tools of war. I’ll bet they are more savvy by this time next year. By then they will have been through the Battle of Britain so they will know a Stuka from a Messerschmidt from a Heinkel.
