Motu Patlu - The Invisible Plane
After 92 years, Goodyear Airship Operations brings to an end the era of the blimp. After 92 years of designing, building, and operating their own blimps, The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company is transitioning from its classic model GZ-20 blimps that have flown for more than half of the company's airship history to a modern airship designed by Zeppelin. The last operating GZ-20 model blimps operated from Goodyear's Carson, California base. Director Brian Wiklem chronicles the operation of a Goodyear Blimp on a cross-country tour from Los Angeles up the Pacific Northwest. Following the Goodyear Blimp Spirit of America from the start of its last summer tour to the U.S. Open at Chambers Bay, Washington, Wiklem captures intimate moments with the men and women behind the aerial brand icon and leads the audience on an incredible journey through a bygone form of aviation. The views are extraordinary.
