The Goodyear Blimp "Spriti of Innovation" is flys from here: Designated a GZ (Goodyear-Zeppelin) 20A, at 192 feet long, 59.5 feet tall and 50 feet wide, is easy to see as she floats above a football stadium or golf course at 1,500 feet. The airship also is supported by a crew of 16, two base maintenance personnel and a public relations manager. The crew follows the airship in a bus, 9-passenger van and a 40-foot specially-outfitted tractor-trailer rig. The Spirit of Innovation was the first Goodyear blimp to be named by the general public through a web-based “name-the-blimp” contest. It is the newest member of the fleet and was christened on June 21, 2006.

  • The blimp pilot is an older gentleman that looks like he drinks to much. I love him.
