Guest WillMikoyan Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 I know this may seem odd, and we've been getting a lot of topics about flying schools lately, but does anyone know of somewhere that offers flight training for a blimp or airship? It dosen't have to be in Australia it can be anywhere... Thanks.
Guest Glenn Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 I googled and found some for the US but not Australia, although a few sites mention it. Have a look at this page of google results - [ame=http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=Commercial+pilot+%28airship%29+licence&btnG=Google+Search&meta=cr%3DcountryAU]http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q ... DcountryAU[/ame] I remember back in the mid 80's when I was living in Sydney seeing Alan Bond's airship coming over my house all the time and they were pretty low too. I think it was hangered out at Schofield's.
Guest WillMikoyan Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 That would have been cool. I don't think I've ever seen one in here Melbourne, but I do remember one in Queensland. This all stemmed from me downloading a blimp for fs2002. Still it'd be pretty cool to fly one I reckon.
Guest Glenn Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 I used to have one for flight sim too. Last time I saw one in real life was tethered just outside Bathurst on one of the big race days.
