Airship Ventures Zeppelin Eureka Arrives at St. Louis Downtown Airport

Airship Ventures Zeppelin "Eureka" arrived at St. Louis Downtown Airport mobile mooring station around 4:45pm today following the assembling of the ground crew.  Local aviation enthusiasts, airport staff and news media gathered to view the airship as it gently touched down in a field beyond historic Curtiss-Wright Hangars One and Two near the Greater St. Louis Air & Space Museum.  The Zeppelin, sponsored by Farmer's Insurance, will be at the airport through August, and rides can be purchased by visiting http://www.airshipventures.com/fly-with-us.  Here are some views of the approach and landing.
