Blimps!

[dewhitaker]

Greetings all! If you have some time and are interested, my employer is building a new blimp. Here is a link to a neat site that shows how.

We see the blimps flying in this area and I have occasionally flown near them, but they can still fly slower than me!

Re: Blimps!

YEAH that Whitaker kid is okay in my book. As some of you know the Blimp base is about 20 miles west of us and the new ships are always tested within sight of our airport. Quite a sight, I saw four Blimps flying in formation a few years ago. Kind of reminded me of a "Bassett waddle" not one of them pointed in the same direction ....
