Anyone else love the airships in Icecrown?

I think they are such an awesome part of the zone or the continent itself.

I know this is late or random, but I just love them. More airships!

It's not an engine, it's a propeller. and it would be very difficult to suspend a line ship with one propeller on one side


Clearly, the physics of Azeroth is not the same as that of Earth. Perhaps, with less gravity, less energy is needed to sustain lift.

On the same note, the side that the propeller is on doesn't make a difference. All that matters is the even distribution of mass. So, perhaps, the ship is very heavy on one side while light on the other.

Also, this is the same continent that has a floating city above it. Physics-wise, why are you picking on the airships? At least they have some visible means of lift.

That said, I'm fairly certain that there is magic afoot. Take that physics!

For some reason, I'm drawn to the airships as well. It's probably a like to like thing, but maybe that's because they are so ridiculously AWESOME!
