| Tom , WA | What do you gentleman think about reintroducing another blimp style craft into the armed forces? Practical or Impractical? Would it be a good idea or not and why?

| Norman Blagbrough Hatfield, PA | Can't send the photos due to file size (blimps are big) exceeding 1meg, even when zipped. Too bad.
I flew in 2W's & 3W's from '59 to '62 in ZW-1 and then ZP-1 out of NAS Lakehurst. I have several photos, along with a crash and a full landing sequence. When the "bags" were deflated in late 1961, I went to VAW-12 in Quonset Point and flew WF-2's. I fondly remember the blimps and the willie fudds. 12/23/2004 @ 14:24 [ref: 8943] |
| Norman Blagbrough Hatfield, OR | I flew in these 1959 to 1962, NAS Lakehurst, NJ. Have some photos that I have attempted to send to you. When the address changes to cuny in Brooklyn, the transfer hangs up, times out and the photos do not transfer. Whats up?
