The 3 skills for aircraft are rotor, vector thrust, and winged. What skill
would one use for the high signature surveillance drone [don't remember the
name] that consists of a lighter-than-air bag with small electric fan
engines. Ditto the SHAPELY craft in the rigger book. The skyswimmer has
little stubby wings, would that mean that the relevant skill would be
winged? How do people handle LTA aircraft? Terry

Maybe an extra skill: LTA Crafts or Zeppelin or whatever you want to call
them. (Before anyone comments, I know not all airships are zeppelins.) Just
add it to the skill web in the same place where the other aircraft skills
come together.
Or maybe use Winged.
