Here’s a picture of what I think is an under-appreciated aircraft, a blimp! Most people would only associate this guy with baseball games or the Super Bowl, but I think more of them should be used for passenger transportation again. I mean, you can take a train ride across the country, why not a blimp ride? It would take a bit longer, depending on the winds, but I can think of few things more enjoyable than leisurely floating over the countryside a few thousand feet above the ground. You even don’t need to worry about another “Hindenburg” since they’re all filled with helium now. Somebody needs to start up a blimpline. :-)
