Blimp III release preps for Sun 7 March 2021

Rough plan follows:
5:00 pm – start filling our balloon from the Hydrogen gas canister in front of the house
5:50 pm – attach the beacon and carry on last tests (it flashes + holds well)
6:00 pm – balloon release
6:13 pm – sunset

Weather forecast – sunny and comfortable 26.9C.

Wind forecast – gentle and easterly (Agreement with Serge is that we’ll always release over the land not to waste the sea).

All the team Blimp welcome to join for a historic moment observation! 🙂
