While at the Head of The Cuyahoga regatta Saturday, got a visit from the Pride of Akron. It was on its way to Progressive field to see the red hot Indians play.
6km traveling 20m/s (v:6/h:14) heading out over the kerblantic. We're going to attempt to steer back towards land
This was hovering over the Olympic Park yesterday. You can't get into the park itself without a ticket but I met some nice people and made the most of the afternoon.
Afgelopen week vloog/zweefde er een zeppelin over Pijnacker en omgeving. Deze grootste zeppelin ter wereld is afkomstig uit Duitsland. De vlucht van deze Zeppelin gaat over het parcours van de N470 (Zoetermeer-Rotterdam). In de ‘bak’ onderaan de zeppelin kunnen 12 mensen plaats nemen. Deze luchtreizigers zijn omwonenden van de N470 of zijn betrokken bij deze provinciale weg.
De zeppelinvluchten werden georganiseerd door kunstenaar Florentijn Hofman van ‘Zirkus Zeppelin’, een onderdeel van de kunstmanifestatie ‘Echt Zien’.
Last week world’s greatest zeppelin (some call it a blimp) flew over the city of Pijnacker and her surroundings. The zeppelin followed the N 470 an important road between Zoetermeer and Rotterdam. A great number of inhabitants of the area was invited to come along, 12 at a time. Photos were taken during the start at Rotterdam Airport.

Ameriquest Blimp decending
Carson, California, Near the junction of Interstates 110 and 405 in Carson is Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company's blimp base on the West Coast of the US, home to the Spirit of Innovation that succeeded the Spirit of America in August of 2015. This ship will be replaced later in 2017 by the more modern Wingfoot 2.
A few miles from where we live lies the decommissioned Marine Corps Air Station Tustin (closed in 1999).
Easy to find, as it is home to two *massive* blimp hangars that were built during WWII.
I believe one hanger is being used for private commercial purposes now, and the other for storage.
1xp RAW shot taken as I was biking back home from the shopping center adjacent the hangars (The District).
Tustin, California.
I was driving down Highway 41 in Oshkosh, WI when I came across the Spirit Of Goodyear blimp. It was parked EAA Air Venture, the "worlds greatest aviation celebration". I've never seen one of these so up close. It sure is a neat thing to see.
