AndyFowler Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 Ah very interesting ! See the old blimp fly over my house quite often looks a bit lively in the winds ! Anyone seen the archive footage of the tragedy that happened to a US Navy ( I think ) airship which was being held down by Naval cadets and a gust took her up and quite a few chaps held on til it was to high to jump and were sadly killed ! I think one young lad managed to tie himself to the line and survived til the ship could be brought back to the ground ! Very sad ! Can't remember where I saw it a long while back ! Quote
