American Blimp Corporation is an American privately owned Hillsboro, Oregon-based company that is the largest manufacturer of blimps in the United States. It manufactures the hardware and rigging for the Lightship and Spector brands of airships. In 2012, American Blimp Corporation and The Lightship Group were acquired by Van Wagner Communications LLC, and became referred to as the Van Wagner Airship Group. On November 17, 2017, the Florida-based AirSign Inc. purchased the American Blimp Corporation and the Van Wagner Airship Group. In additional to getting 15 airships in the acquisition, AirSign also purchased the U.S. Navy A-170 airship from the US Navy. With ownership and management of Van Wagner's global airship operations, including staff with decades of experience in the airship industry, AirSign positioned itself as the world's largest airship company.
ABC was founded in 1987 by James Thiele. The company's lightships are the A-60 and A-60+, as well as the A-150 and A-170. The website says, "There are more A-60+ airships flying in commercial service than those of all other manufacturers combined."
