I want my jetpack!
I was "scanning" text more than reading, because this was awesome enough when I thought it was a going to be a plain old airship. As a space transport.... "Oh, the humanity"..... You're "Admiral Frizzinbee" now ...
There is a Jupiter II and fiber optic kits (mine) and an "operating" Goodyear blimp model in the basement I've been trying to finagle from a pal for a few years. Maybe, just maybe. π I also have a flashgordon/"Silverfish" insipired porthole equipped rocket πon rails.
