On my journey as an Airship Pilot, I have created this blog to keep in touch with family and friends.

Phoenix, Arizona
We spent a few days in Phoenix, Arizona the last week in October on our way to California. Some pictures of Camel Back Mountain, the Arizona State Fair and a gorgeous desert sunset are amongst the highlights of the pictures.
Back to the Blog
Well I've been away from updating lately due to being busy and out of space for my pictures. I know half the fun of this is sharing the pictures and video I take while flying. Good news though, I've got more space so I can start uploading pictures again! I'll start getting the galleries of pictures up as they finish uploading. With each set I'll give a rundown on what I've been up to.

Kansas City Obama Rally
Did some flying over the Kansas City area yesterday. I was able to see first hand how interested in politics people have become during this year's presidential election. It was quite a sight flying over the thousands of people waiting in line to get into the Barack Obama rally on Saturday evening at the Liberty Memorial. If you take a look at the pictures in full size, you can see the line of people circle the entire park.

Above the Clouds
Here are some pictures from last week's transit down to Dallas. I got to do a little flying above the clouds since we had enough ballonet to get above them. Check out the shadow of the blimp on the clouds in some of the pictures. Pretty cool. I also took a couple of downtown Memphis from afar as I passed by.

Transit to Cinci
The transit from New Jersey to Cincinnati, OH made for some good sights along the way. The leaves are starting to change in PA especially in the valleys. The flight also brought me past some familiar places as I flew past Kent State University. Oh the memories! Also there are a number of corn mazes beginning to pop up which have some really cool designs. Check it all out in the photos below!

NYC at Night
Nothing quite as pretty as NYC at night time. Here is a video from when I flew the airship up the Hudson River towards Manhattan the other night.

Formation Flying
Blimps are rare to see when you consider how many there are in the world. Even rarer is to see two of them flying along together. Here is a little video and some pictures of 2 airships flying together back to the airport where they both are moored in New Jersey.

Beantown
I flew around downtown Boston today and took a few pictures. I began by passing by Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots and then flying up to downtown. I got some good shots of the skyline as well as Boston Logan Airport and Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox. Its always a unique way to see a city from the blimp. A nice way to spend the morning in Beantown.
