We just had it here as well! There’s a Goodyear plant near us and over the last few years they’ve come and flown around the city a couple of times.

It used to come into KSKY when @LeeGriffing , @Dr.Badass and I were working… so cool seeing it up close.

@GeeNCPilot Did you get to watch the whole landing/docking/mooring situation? It can be totally uneventful when the winds are calm but as @RobertBerger and @Dr.Badass can attest - its a totally different operation to watch them dock in 15 knots of wind.

I didn’t! I caught it just after “take off” once, which was pretty cool seeing it maneuver low to the ground.

There’s something opulent about those things to me. Maybe it’s the Indiana Jones fan in me…
