    Goodyear blimp question

    While searching for the web to see if I can track where the Goodyear blimp is currently I came across a picture someone took. The link is below and they mention EAA. Is it normal for the blimp to have spotlights on it at night or was this a special photo op type thing.

    Anyone who has been at EAA in the past either leaving at night or camping overnight be able to answer this question? If not I will have to do a hour drive up one night and fight the leaving traffic in hope that it's light up.

    Hi Brian - If I remember right, when the Goodyear Blimp visits, it is lit like that every night.

    Do you know if it's light all night or just at dusk for those leaving the show? Would be easier to arrive at 11pm, 12am to avoid the traffic.
