I think it's a great idea. Count me in (I'll send the PM now).

I appreciate your enthusiasm!  You probably want to wait until the Saltire is nearing your part of the World. Each person who gets her is responsible only to get the little zeppelin to the next X Marker. I imagine that one of the SOKS, cloves, or Sheep in Wolf's Clothing will be the one to send her overseas in the course of time (that is why people need to report her current position).

You know, I'm very near there. If the Saltire comes my way, and I can do it without being arrested by the MPs, I'll gladly take a picture of the Saltire at Lakehurst Naval Air Station.

I used to be stationed there back in the 80's for Parachute Rigger school. The place had the biggest hangar I've ever seen.

Hanger 1 at Lakehurst is where the Hindenberg was supposed to go. It's almost 300 feet high, and 800-some feet long, though a lot of it has now been turned into parts of the Ocean County VoTech. It is big enough to have its own weather inside, though!

Something was missing
I just attended the largest gathering of lighter than air aircraft in the world, the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. One aircraft was missing, the Saltire!! Something MUST be done about this!!! Next October the Saltire simply must stop here during the first full week for Balloon Fiesta
