General airship question: advantages and disadvantages of size?

+0
−0

Airships are cool, and one of the only vehicles that benefits of the square cube law as it can carry more weight if it has more volume of lifting gas. This got me thinking about what other advantages abd disadvantages you get based on an Airships size. What benefits are there to having a small airship versus a large one? What benefits does a large airship have over a small one?

To get a singular answer I want to focus on a general comparison:

What are the advantages and disadvantages of a large airship compared to a small airship?

To illustrate what I'm after, I would like to know the differences in capacity, short/Mid/long-range flight, maneuversbility during different weather etc.
