I believe the answer is:

blimp

(Other definitions for blimp that I've seen before include "Pompous type - barrage balloon" , "Small barrage balloon" , "returns one pound to provost" , "Large inflatable" , "David Low's cartoon colonel - airship used for publicity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
