Say, the news said that these three blimps only reached 25 mph. That's less than half the a-60+'s top speed. I don't know about the a-170. What gives? Wasn't this supposed to be a race?
BTW They're lucky the Eureka wasn't in the race. She can hit 78 mph! Not as good as the Aeros-50, but I don't think any of those are flying anymore.

That Horizon blimp was a real darkhorse. I thought that the a-170 was supposed to be faster than the a-60! It's top speed is what, 50, 55 miles per hour? That DirecTV blimp should have won!
so you flew the mcblimp?

@hertzfire I was on the McBlimp flight crew. The ship also flew for SeaWorld & MetLife (the 1st Snoopy blimp!).
