At 65,000 feet, weather is no problem at all. Besides, a blimp of this magnitute will be able to withstand anything except perhaps an F10 Tornado or continental-size hurricane.

It's much faster and easier to navigate by air than sea - since by air, especially at 65,000 feet, there are no limits. This idea is far superior to building destroyers

I got a 20 minute ride in the Goodyear Blimp back in 1968, shortly after my return from overseas. It was a kick in the butt. Much differant than anything else I've ever ridden in.
