Re: look out below

You may actually have some valid points there...blimps aren't exactly the most "air-worthy" vessels(?). Wouldn't 13 miles up be near the jet stream? I don't think blimps handle turbulence well.

Also, what happens when one of these things has to land to refuel? They'd have to have a back-up blimp (lol) ready to go.

13 miles is well above any weather systems.
