Snoopy Two

Metlife’s blimp crew invited all of us from the Schulz studio to come out and see the air ship in action today. This is the smaller of the blimps in their fleet named “Snoopy Two.”

Here’s the blimp docking. Notice there are several handlers on the ground who grab lines as if they are pulling in a boat to a dock.

Here’s me, geekin’ out in the cockpit. This small space holds four people. This air ship can do a top speed of around 55 mph, but they usually cruise at around 35 mph.

I talked Mandy, the pilot, into posing for this shot under the blimp.
