The airship conductor was a robot conductor and law enforcer on an airbus which transported passengers around the planet of Centuria. He worked on the airship the Tenth Doctor and Jayne Kadett took to reach Azlon.
When they reached the airbus terminal (a Cyber-conversion factory), the conductor became influenced by the Cybermen's hypnotic signal, which was being used to subjugate the arriving humans. The Doctor and Jayne followed the reprogrammed robot conductor, pretending to be hypnotised, to enter the factory. Once inside, the Doctor disrupted the hypnotic signal. This caused the conductor to attack the Cybermen. A stray shot from the conductor ruptured fuel banks in the factory, causing an explosion which killed most of the newly converted Cyber-drones.
