These Goodyear blimps were a part of my youth, they docked one town over from mine and have always been a fun memory. This is a sad yet galvonizing part of that now.

He is a hero and a true man, no doubt. I'd still like to fly in one in spite of the risks.

in spite of the risks.

Thank you for appreciating his sacrifice, America needs more like him.
I won't fly, but I'd jump at the chance of going up in a blimp, especially one of the Goodyear's which have nearly spotless safety records, and definitely if (at all possible) piloted by Mike Nerandzik, now flying with angels.
