It's Miyazaki. They *all* have some sort of flying machine... Laputa
has
the great mucking chunk of land in the sky at the end, though dirigibles
do
figure throughout. Kiki has the dirigible at the end (not to mention
the
whole flying broomstick thing). Nausicaa... well, okay, no dirigibles,
but
plenty of odd flying things.
And the list goes on... I don't think there's a single Miyazaki out
there
without something odd that flys in it. Even his Lupin III TV series
episode had something! (A take-off of the Spruce Goose, IIRC.)
