Non-intrusive? Sure, until they have to dump the blue ice somewhere...

Hmm. It's certainly an interesting idea, and makes good use of airships' ability to remain aloft unpowered, but I'm not seeing the resemblance to TB2.

Not the thunderbird 2, but skyship 1, from the second thunderbird thunderbird motion picture.

Ahh, they'll just dump it on poor neighborhoods, so it shouldn't be any real inconvenience...
