If you can't buy one you can try to build one. Whichever way you go there are regulation hoops to jump through.<p><a href="https://www.faa.gov/aircraft/air_cert/design_approvals/airships" rel="nofollow">https://www.faa.gov/aircraft/air_cert/design_approvals/airsh...</a><p><a href="https://pilotinstitute.com/private-pilot-requirements/" rel="nofollow">https://pilotinstitute.com/private-pilot-requirements/</a>

I assume you can buy anything if you have the budget for it. Or even build your own. Unsure what license you would need to fly one though...
