The old Goodyear blimps were ridiculously loud. You needed to wear ear protection 100% of the time. The new ones are whisper quiet.

FYI, whenever they go someplace they almost always have time in the schedule dedicated to giving free rides. You just gotta be in the right place at the right time ;)

Blimps are children’s toys.

Zeppelins are the real rigid deal.

		Yep, and that's what Goodyear uses now. The last blimp left the fleet less than 10 years ago.
