The Iron Eagle

From WoWWiki

The Iron Eagle is a zeppelin, with a goblin crew and orc guards, which runs between the tower located SE outside of Orgrimmar in Durotar and within Grom'gol Base Camp in Stranglethorn Vale. The Captain claims it used to be a warship "whose mere sight make armies rout" but the crew remains doubtful of this fact.
