A quick one based on u/Sam-Nales’s comment about combining airship mooring masts with screw conveyors/screw elevators similar to those used by grain silos on my last post over on reddit. I talked it over with the folks on the farming community: https://slrpnk.net/post/3643695 and feel like there’s a definite place for grain and silos in a solarpunk world. This was a quick one, the zoomed out scenes often are.

I’m not sure a mooring mast is entirely necessary here, with the big, recently-reaped fields to land on, but perhaps this farm is using a system compatible to other farms nearby who use more agroforestry, and wouldn’t necessarily like having to clear a patch of empty land just for landing airships

    That’s really good to know, thank you! Swapping the elevator in wouldn’t be too much work and it makes sense, I was just estimating height but had to use two different screw conveyors and I wasn’t sure if that made sense. Glad to know the cargo capacity actually matched up.
