My mom filmed this one evening in 1972 at a now defunct airfield called Russell Field just south of Ft. Worth, TX.

  • I flew the Goodyear Mayflower blimp in 74' over Miami Beach. I was 14 & visiting family in Miami. I called every day between 8-8:15am for a reservation to go for a ride, but no luck. Finally, I got thru. They said we can take 1 small person less than 125lbs- be here in 20 minutes. I conned a city bus driver to let me off in the middle of a causeway near the field. I ran & ran. I finally made it on board where Captain Chambers let me take the controls for a minute. I'll never forget it. AWESOME!

  • That was great. Nice soundtrack too!

  • America N10A, based in the now closed Spring, TX Goodyear Base, This was the first GZ-20 blimp GY built. She was also known as the Ghost Blimp because her car was part of a US Navy blimp that crashed in a town in California in the 1940s, but the two pilots were missing.

  • I love this Goodyear Blimp clip !

    Thank you for uploading this video!
