GOODYEAR BLIMP GROUNDED



We see the Goodyear blimp all the time on TV over sports stadiums but how many people actually get to see inside the blimps gondola?

A newly-restored Goodyear blimp gondola was brought by truck from Goodyear’s Wingfoot Lake Airship Operations base to the MAPS Air Museum, where the gondola will be placed on permanent display.

The gondola is the flight cabin of a modern blimp. A pilot and copilot operated the lighter-than-air aircraft from the controls located at the front of the gondola. Up to eight passengers could also be seated in the gondola. The gondola houses the radar and avionics in its nose. Two aircraft engines, mounted to the outside of the gondola, propelled the blimp up to 50 mph.

A group of eight volunteers from MAPS, lead by former Goodyear engineer Don Block, spent several weeks restoring the gondola at Goodyear’s Wingfoot location. With Goodyear’s help, the volunteers have brought the gondola back to its original pristine condition.

Mr. Lorney Elbert of Elyria, Ohio donated the services of Elbert Construction to transport the 36 ft. long gondola, weighing almost 10,000 lbs. to the gondola’s new home at the museum. Mr. Elbert and Goodyear had to meticulously plan the route the truck took to the museum, making sure that the heavy load would clear any bridges and low-hanging signs and wires.

The gondola was placed in the hangar gallery at the museum. Once it is settled into its spot among the other aircraft in the hangar, the windows will be fitted to the gondola to complete the restoration effort. Visitors will be able to walk through the gondola to see the pilot controls and passenger accommodations of a modern blimp.

The museum offers a wide array of exhibits from the first air ships, World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam to the present day. More than 22 aircraft adorn this unique museum, ranging from the 1908 Martin Glider, the first heavier-than-air aircraft to carry a woman aloft, to the massive F-14 Tomcat, made famous by the movie Top Gun. This is a hands-on museum allowing visitors to sit in a Russian Mig-17 fighter, control a World War II anti-aircraft gun, tour a Goodyear blimp gondola and more. Active restoration projects allow visitors to witness planes being brought back to life, including several Cold War era fighters, and one of the last World War II B-26 Marauders bombers known to exist. Many artifacts, uniforms and original artwork adorn this attraction. In addition, there is a large gift shop. Handicap accessible, and guided or self-guided tours are available.

MAPS Air Museum is located at 2260 International Parkway, off of State Rte. 241 (Massillon Rd.) on the West side of the Akron-Canton Airport in North Canton, Ohio 44720. Admission is $8/adult, $7/senior (age 60+), $5/child (age 6-12). Group rates apply for tours of 15 people or more. For hours and other information, call 330-896-6332 or see www.mapsairmuseum.org.

The Goodyear blimp performs over a CF-101 Voodoo on static display in 1978




The first CP-140 Aurora to enter service in the Canadian Armed Forces was delivered straight to the Abbotsford Airshow, landing in Canada for the first time on August 9, 1979. Another aircraft to debut in 1979 was the De Havilland Dash 7. Two examples were on hand, one on static and one flying in the airshow. A new act to Abbotsford was the two-ship BD-5 Acrojets flown by Corkey Fornof and Bob Bishop. Joann Osterud was back, this time flying the Stephens Akro. The Blackbird returned to Abbotsford in 1979, its second staight year at the airshow. It performed flybys on the Friday of the show. A B-52 flew at Abbotsford for the first time, and two F-15 Eagles were on static display at the airshow, their first time in Abbotsford.

Akron, Ohio - Goodyear Blimp Hangar




Visitor Tips and News About Goodyear Blimp Hangar

Following are Goodyear Blimp Hangar reports and tips that were sent in by RoadsideAmerica.com visitors. Some tips may not be verified. Submit your own tip or update.

Akron, Ohio - Goodyear Blimp Hangar

We were visiting Akron and decided to try to find the hangar where the blimps were actually made years ago - I remember being taken there as a kid and standing inside. A memory I will never forget! I took pictures from the road last September. [Carol Stickel, 01/28/2009]

Akron, Ohio - Goodyear Blimp Hangar

The original blimp air dock is actually located near Wingfoot Lake Park in Mogadore and is still owned and operated by Goodyear and still houses the Akron blimp. I used to work there a few years ago it is a very interesting place and very old. [Benjamin, 09/29/2008]

Akron, Ohio - Goodyear Airdock - Vague Recollections

When I was stationed in Akron as a US Air Force recruiter, I got to know a gentleman who worked at Loral Aerospace (now Lockheed Martin) and he was kind enough to take me into the airdock on several occasions. The southern end of the airdock has been closed off for decades by a large building (Goodyear built a handful of Corsair fighters in that building towards the end of WWII). The airdock itself is of course closed to the public; it is now used as a huge storage space. Unknown to most though, is that on the east side of the airdock is the original Goodyear 1910 airdock, which is perhaps 1/100th the size of the later one.

One last note: for some years in the late '80s and early '90s, the full-sized shuttlecraft prop from the original Star Trek series was stored there while it was restored. [Mike Kozlowski, 02/16/2007]

Akron, Ohio - Goodyear Airdock - Hangar



A huge structure .... Just imagine how big the blimps used to be that were built inside. As large as a Floating City! In the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest building without interior supports, the Goodyear Airdock -- where Goodyear once built blimps --- is 22 stories high and could accommodate four Super Bowl Games at once! Because of the unique design and construction, height and atmosphere actually produce rain and clouds inside the building! [Michael Schario, 06/16/2002]

[RA: June 2004 Update - Melissa points out that "Goodyear no longer owns the airdock. It was sold years ago to Lockheed Martin. The airdock is not open to the public (a shame, really, as they could make a lot of money on tours!)."]

Akron, Ohio - Goodyear Blimp - Zeppelin Dock

Worlds largest structure without interior support. Under right conditions it rains inside. Home of ill-fated Akron and Macon airships. [Ted Snyder, 09/23/2000]

[RA: Nov. 2004 - Tom Solinski writes: "In a recently published biograpy of Karl Arnstien -- the man behind the design of the Airships Akron and Macon and the Air Dock created to build and house them -- Karl points out that under the right conditions it got very humid, to the point of misting, but never raining in the Dock. A rumor that has been out of proportion since 1929."]
