airship's

Belonging to zeppelin

Airship's is the possessive form of airship—a lighter-than-air aircraft kept aloft by gas, such as a blimp or dirigible.

The possessive indicates something belonging to or associated with the vessel: the airship's gondola, the airship's hydrogen cells, the airship's slow but steady progress across the Atlantic.
