The iconic Goodyear Blimp is coming to Ottawa in honour of Canada’s 150th anniversary this year, and to mark the occasion two lucky Canadians will be riding shotgun for its journey.
The company announced a contest on its website Thursday offering two people the opportunity to “celebrate Canada’s 150th from up here” in the blimp.
The company hasn’t announced an exact date for the blimp’s flight over the nation’s capital, just saying it would happen sometime this summer.
The iconic Goodyear Blimp has been flying the skies over important sporting and cultural events since the 1920s.
Today there are actually three of the airships that tour all over North America.
The newest version of the blimp is a hybrid of the Zeppelin model LZ N07-100 with Goodyear modifications. The blimps are 75 metres long (about two-thirds of a football field, minus the endzones), nearly 20 metres at its widest points and boasts a maximum speed of 117 kilometres per hour.
