Blimp Flying Over Roosevelt Island Today - Take The MetLife Blimp Tour

When looking up to the sky over Roosevelt Island, it is not unusual to see a low flying helicopter or seaplane barely passing above the Queensboro Bridge and almost touching Roosevelt Island building rooftops.

Earlier this afternoon this Blimp flew past the Queensboro Bridge heading north over Roosevelt Island


to an unknown destination.

I believe it was a Metlife Blimp although no indication from their web page that New York City was a destination today.

Here's how you fly a blimp.

I think it displayed "Goodyear" on his sides.

There was a blimp covering the Yankees game, probably the same one.
