That's friggen sweet!

I've flown some blimps at my university's hockey arena, and it's hard enough to fly those things inside. I can't imagine what it's like outside in the wind!

That's entirely impressive! And you've got STONES for flying it outside, you get a lot of calm air?

Love that landscape there nice rollen hills. Can you tell us were the pictures are taken from.

pics were taken in the town of "hod asharon" 15 miles north of Tel Aviv. few days ago.

It was my first job actualy, filming a big concert at the israeli independence day, video from the blimp was broadcasted live to two huge screens near the stage. it was a total success.

the wind limit for the blimp is 25mph but to have good results in filming or taking pictures i need light winds of max 10 mph.

but i am still learning it, next project is to add gyros to the remote camera head, to get more stability in strong winds.

I'm him, that's some beautiful countryside. I dunno about those cookie-cutter apartments though, lol. In addition to that nude beach, how about those nude sunbathers on their decks Wink

25 mph... wow. Sure sounds like fun, but a lot of work too!
