Does that Saturn Ion blimp have a 2.2L Ecotec engine?

All A-1 airships have Lycoming IO-360 engines.

I have a fetish for pilots too...some of those uniformed airship pilots look hot....:-)

[Airshipal]

Not enough female pilots!

[Snorkmaiden82]

Would love to have an airship flight. Wonder if airships might yet be the future of air travel, what with them being greener and all.

[Airshipal]

I sure hope so!

Thanks for the comment and kudos for your website. I will eventually put up more airship videos on the channel. Stay tuned...

I know the feeling. A blimp evokes emotions than no other aircraft can muster. Perhaps it brings to mind the romantic era of flights of fancy.

I always seem to love it when they flew ov3r my house in Philadelphia, And loved them especially at night when they have their meessage board like GoodYear

[Dannymac82]

sounds like you also a huge blimp fan just like I am.

[Airshipal]

I sure am! How did you get started?

[Dannymac82]

I cant even count how many blimps there are out there today, knowing about like just 20 years ago the only one that was heard of was only goodyear. though Fujifilm started in 1981

I have seen and flown on many different types of blimps including the GZ-19 and GZ-20 series, the WDL blimp, the Skyship 500 & 600 series, and the Lightship A60 and A150. I am truly a helium head!!! I also have hundreds of hours of airship videos, at least half I shot since the late '60's.
