The Holden Airship was a promotional gimmick operated by Holden (GM Holden Ltd), an Australian car manufacturer. The lightship (American Blimp Corporation A-170) is painted in the distinctive red and white livery of Holden and is flown at various outdoor events, such as Tertiary Open Day in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, on 25 August 2007 (see picture).
In late September 2007, The Holden Airship was decommissioned and shipped back to the USA in preparation for its next international contract.
