What It Takes To Fly The $21 Million Goodyear Blimp

- We took a ride on the world-famous Goodyear Blimp as it flew above the Daytona International Speedway where it provided aerial coverage for NASCAR in February. Our journey began at the Blimp Base in Pompano Beach, Florida - from there, the Blimp flew 200 miles north to a small airport in New Smyrna, where it would call home for the weekend.
We got to spend about five hours in the Blimp, which was updated in 2014 in collaboration with the Zeppelin company. The new model isn't technically a Blimp, due to the internal structure inside its balloon, or envelope.
This is what it's like to fly on the iconic Goodyear Blimp, which isn't accessible to the public - only the crew and invited guests are allowed to go for a ride.

What It Takes To Fly The $21 Million Goodyear Blimp
2:51 : "Six months to maybe a little over a year"
So you need a goodyear of training to fly this thing?

When I was younger, I thought the people sat in balloon part
same LMAOO
Same 😂
acydic. I though they flew in the rudder or very tip
Yall honestly stupid while kids
I still believed that until today .
My dad worked 36 years at Brazil's Goodyear and one day he brought the whole family in a flight on this beauty. I'll never forget that
What. Did goodyear brought the blimp to Brazil?
@@CorredorDigital_ Goodyear has 3 of them.
WOW!
How does one ever get a ride on the blimp? I see it everyday almost here in LA and it’s been on my bucket list for years!
@@ReelsCW in 1990, my girlfriends Dad was a Vice President of marketing for a big grocery chain in San Francisco. Somehow, he was able to get my gf and I a ride on the Goodyear Blimp. It was crazy, the crew and us passengers were in a cockpit the size of a motor home. We could talk to the pilot from our seats. He flew us over the Oakland Collisium and dipped us down low over it. One of the coolest things I’ve ever done. They gave us signed cards that said we had flown in the blimp.

*_I wonder if the Blimp Tires are Goodyear_*

Why do you always *SCREAM THE COMMENTS!!??!*
Nah man, there Lego
Didnt you hear, its not a blimp
Of course not, they re chinese lol
In the '80s when I was in high school, there was a Goodyear Blimp based right across the freeway from our school. I was on the yearbook staff and we requested a ride to photograph the campus from above. Goodyear was happy to oblige. When it was our turn, they put me in the co-pilot seat. We flew around, I took pictures, and then the pilot asked if I wanted to fly it. This was an older model with pedals for the rudders and a big wheel beside each seat for elevators. I'll never forget that day. For a few minutes, I got to fly the Goodyear blimp.
that sounds amazing
this is a very wholesome story thank you for sharing
that's incredible! a piece of aviation history, no doubt.
Outstanding!

Didn't realize they still fly blimps this openly in public....
Why still? it is unpredictably dangerous.
@@1unartic probably has to be closed to the mainland too for easy rescue events.
@@1unartic we think by now that we would already be building advanced airships by now....
*metal/titanium-built* airships.
or just Spaceships to make things easier to imagine.
@@1unartic I say it so because it is an easier popable giant oval-shaped balloon. even an average bird could do some pecking until it eventually combust (though that is probably just me being paranoid).
Modern aerial jets are Far from Perfect, but they would be sturdier if ever one does crash into the Earth filled with a Hundred people inside it so long as the pilots does have a proper control and timing for they could emergency-land....

@@jamiegoddard1781 oof
I was expecting them to say something bigger like $800k to 1mil. The importance of the events it covers and there being only one on the ship I bet its an incredible piece of equipment.
Kilikus nah, just slap a Galaxy s10 on a mount and call it a day.
Shotover makes them
I played enough GTA to know how to comandeer this
alright now crash it into fort zancudo
As a kid i thought people would ride inside the round thing
God Mode In the big Airships of the 30s the Passenger cabins were actually in the lower section of the Lifting Body
As a kid I knew that passengers would ride in the gondola and not in the body of the airship, but I was always wondering how airships like the Hindenburg could carry 87 people if the gondola was so small. So actually passenger airships did have cabins inside the body.
LMAO SAME
They don't???
Johnny Tightlips they used to you weren’t wrong
2 snipe shots in gta and your 20 mil is gone 😂
It is not hydrogen based it's helium based . It can leak but can not blast

I don’t know why it made me smile when they said that the blimp would spin around in circles at night while parked. Also I feel like a crash in that thing would feel like a gentle ground boop.
@@ranjan_v not the same. It's not hydrogen filled. But yeah prob not pleasant still 😂
@@ranjan_v Ever heard of helium?
It's very much true, I had a Good Year Airship operating from LPCS for Portugal's 1993 Formula One Grand Prix and the ship behaves just like a wind sock. It will rotate around the mast according to wind direction. I was Controller back then and later took a ride on her. 😀

That’s a big improvement from the previous generation blimps. I had an opportunity to look inside the cockpit of the older model and I was shocked at how small it was.
Wrong wrong .look at USA Macon and uss Akron . I love it when they said it could only pick up a little bit.? Yeah buddy an aircraft carrier flying with planes inside. Being launched and captured. Anyway it'll be over soon
@@onewordhereonewordthere6975 Those are rigid airships, meaning that they can fit things inside the "balloon" due to using internal gas bags. A blimp or semi-rigid just could not do that, limiting internal capacity to just the cockpit.
@@olachens they're called a dirigible airship. Are you aware the USS Macon and the USS Akron crashed and did not blow up 70 sailors 6 planes galley , officers mess living living quarters and let's not forget 6 airplanes. Helium can never pick
up that much weight. When the Hindenburg burnt up only the camera and the camera man was there . The so-called reporter ad-libbed. As a child and a young adult it terrified me and a whole lot of others . But no more. I know why they're lying and they are 100% LYING I really don't care if anybody believes me .
Yes I do care . But they're trolls will relentlessly we're down through tactics that are childish and Evil. It's not just the airship it is the fuel that despite what anyone says it's easy to make and safer than gasoline aviation fuel kerosene. It is the ultimate sustainable development it's byproduct is itself . Even better the process cleans it. People just believe what their mind-control says. Sorry govern ment .

Imagine seeing a 'Good Year' blimp flying over in 2020
Lol!
I would appreciate the optimism.
the joke here is that 2020 is not a "good year"
maybe the fact that it hasn't flown is why 2020 hasn't been a good year 😶

No Jack, it's a floating adventure.
@@saffakanera best answer ever
Back in the late 90's we had some kind of a blimp fever in Argentina, and we had different blimps flying across the country, including _Good Year_ and _La Serenísima_ blimps... It was amazing to see them floating in the distance. XOXO
I used to see alot of blimps as a kid, how come I don't see them anymore!?
I saw them in 2OII, but in 2OI3 they suddenly stopped :(
The Hindenburg disaster kinda killed the industry
@@tectubedk In all seriousness apparently the Hindenburg was absolutely massive. It was 4 times longer than the Goodyear blimp.

That was the Goodyear blimp. This is the Zeppelin NT.
Good point. I’ll always think of it as the ‘blimp’, though.

I rode it back before they moved the propellers to the balloon, and it was noisy as hell.
I am being honest i liked it.But there was something that made me like it even more, that background music perfectly synced with slow moving plane with relaxing atmosphere.
ive seen it at my elementary school several times, looking back it was just so cool knowing theirs only 15-20 blimps left and ive seen this one multiple times, the Goodyear blimp.

Wow, the new "Blimps" are a far cry from the old GZ-20's that were in service when I worked for Goodyear Canada Inc. The old versions were only 192 feet long, had hardly any passenger capacity, and were much less tech oriented, but they were fun to fly. As an employee I had the opportunity to fly in them on 3 occasions, and actually took control of the craft for several minutes on one of the flights, and have a certificate of provenance that made me an honorary Blimp Pilot.
Who else finds blimps really fascinating?
Me!
Crackhead.Cammy honestly, they look like shit and boring as hell
I got so interested in them in world war 2, the giant menacing masses just flying around mounted with guns
Mr Hippo uh
Mr Hippo wrong war
It looks so peaceful when it flys it just makes you happy :)
Looking at a blimp in the sky just makes you feel something fuzzy inside. It’s a great feeling. :)
Agree. It really looks like a much nicer way to fly than by plane. Smooth and subtle😎
Until it'll crash down and began to engulf with hellish fire and starts to explode
Yes it does!☺
You know it's not a good year when you don't see this in the sky at all.
I throughly enjoyed this video! When I was a child, if the Goodyear was spotted, my mother would load me and my sister into the car to chase it. Literally! She would hop curbs, go off road in our '70 Chevelle. She would only stop when trees, or a fence blocked our passage, or until the muffler was ripped off the car! This happened numerous times throughout our childhood! Good times!
I remember falling in love with Blimps back in 2003. At the National Museum of the USAF in Ohio, 4 Blimps came to fly together to celebrate 100 years of flight! The four Blimps were the Goodyear blimp, Saturn Blimp, MetLife Blimp, and the Fuji Film blimp.
And my love for this particular Goodyear "Airship" in the video began in 2015 when it visited Oshkosh, WI during EAA AirVenture!

Why are you guys freaking everyone in New Jersey out...they seriously think this Blimp is a UFO...lol...
When i was little i loved blimps. My mom wrote them asking if me and my brothers could come aboard. They said sure free of charge and took us over the bay area. One of the coolest experiences of my life.
I asked and I too was afforded the opportunity to board w my family. A experience I’ll never forget! The story the pilot shared w me has never left me! They told me how they glided across the country at slow speeds w a crew that follows them to land. I’ll for ever dream wishing I could have that experience if I ever win the lotto. That will be my first experience. Thank you Goodyear for giving me and my family the opportunity to experience this ride

Wait... The new Goodyear Blimp uses LEADED gas?! That's still legal?!
Yes, its called AvGas 100LL, is still in wide use in general aviation and ain't going nowhere anytime soon. But it has a reduced lead content compared to the traditional stuff.
Yes it's legal, but the practice is shrinking in other nations. It was done because most of the existing piston engines required higher octane than early unleadad fuels could provide and the hardened valve seat inserts needed to convert engines to unleadad fuel use weren't reliable enough in these engines. Those problems have been overcome and 110LL "avgas" is being phased out in many nations. Some of the newer engines for aircraft now allow the use of "mogas" which is unleaded gasoline meant for motorcars.
Who came here after the viral ufo videos?
There’s no light source on the side!
I live in the city of the main goodyear company. Often, especially during the spring and summer, you’ll see the blimp flying around the city and a bunch of kids screaming about it in schoolyards.
Suffield, Akron, Ohio
Around Friedrichshafen, the town on the Lake of Constance (between Germany, Austria and Switzerland) where the Zeppelin headquater is located, there are uo two three of these Zepplins up in the air at the same time.
Combined with the view of the alps behind the big lake it's just staggeringly beautiful...
Proud to have been part of the Airship Operation for almost 8 years. True professionals from the Ground Crew to the Techs, to the Pilots. (A lot of fun also).
