First Lady

The First Lady is the airship that Lady Comstock  used before she was murdered. The airship is now maintaned in remberance of its former owner. Booker DeWitt and Elizabeth spend a large portion of Bioshock Infinite trying to use the airship to escape to paris

Constuction
Comstock built the airship for his wife to use a personal luxury transport. Though the First Lady similar to the security zepelins seen throughout the city, it has been heavily modified to fit the needs of lady Comstock. Most notably the airship has been decorated with gold and burgandy finish and a large portriat of Lady Comstock added to the side. Twohigh caliber gun turrets have also been mounted to the hull to defend the airship, so that it may fill its roll without needing escort. Lastly, the tial and wings of the airship have both been shortened but have also had their airfoils streamlined, which likely makes the airship faster as well as making it look more cosmetically apealing. Like many zeppelins in Columbia, the First Lady is capable if navigating to any longitude and latitude on its own. It also constantly keeps its engines running, even when docked.

events in game
The First Lady is first seen in game flying above Battleship Bay. Booker then notices a poster advertising tours through the airship and speculates that the First Lady may be able to get them out of columbia. When Booker finds Elizabeth he motivates her to follow him by saying that the airship is heading to Paris, neglecting to inform her that it must be stolen first. When the pair enters Soldier's Field, the First Lady flies to the its aerodrome to dock for the night. Unfortunatly when they try to activate the gondola to the aerodrome the Shock Jockey powering the controls shots out. After getting more Shock Jockey at the Hall of Heros, Booker Dewitt reactivates the gondola and he and Elizabeth board the First Lady. However when Booker sets a course, he does so for New York rather than Paris. Elizabeth bursts into tears when she learns this and when Booker tries to console her she hits him in the head with a wrench. Before Elizabeth can fly the First Lady  to Paris though she runs into the Vox Populi. Elizabeth leaves an unconcious Booker in the airship and jumps of before the Vox come. Daisy Fitzroy and several other Vox Populi members board the airship and turn it into something of a mobile hospital. When Booker Regains conciousness Daisy bargins with him in exchainge for the airship back, making him go to Finkton to get guns for the Vox. The First Lady is seen agian being used by Daisy to make a speech to her followers, even replacing the image of Lady Comstock with a projection of her own face. However this version of Daisy Fitzroy never made the deal with Booker Dewitt so when he goes to collect on the airship she retalites with force, because her own version of Booker Dewitt was dead and she saw the new one as an imposter. They find Daisy and the airship on top of the Finkton factory. Elizabeth stabs Daisy and then quickly retreats into the private cabin of the First Lady, where she changes into Lady Comstock's dress. Meanwhile booker sets a random heading and the airship takes off. Unfortunatly Comstock uses a statue of himself placed within the First Lady to summon Songbird. While Booker and Elizabeth search for some kind of throttle to make the airship go fast, Songbird attacks and crahes the Zeppelin an area just outide Emporia, where its envelope burns to a skeleton.
