As the debate continues over the fate of Moffett Field’s Hangar One, which was built for the Navy’s dirigibles, a relic from its past is en route to the former naval air station. Well, it’s not a relic so much as a modern version. A 246-foot-long Airship Ventures Zeppelin will be calling Moffett Field home and offering a rare opportunity for riders to experience what its like to cruise in an airship. $500 buys you a one-hour ride around the Bay Area at 1,200 feet. The company’s blog details the logistics involved with transporting a zeppelin from Germany to Texas, and then flying it to California. They say it’s the first zeppelin in the U.S. skies in 70 years and there’s a blog for sightings. (Bonus link: Jack Clemens spent five years building a remote-controlled scale model of the USS Macon, the dirigible that called Hangar One home in the 1930s, only to lose it in a gust of wind. Anyone who spots the 22-foot long airship should contact the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office. It’s the second one he’s built. The first was ruined when his cat jumped on it.)
