Mudgee Self-Drive Zeppelin Tours
Despite lingering concerns around their safety, Zeppelins hold a special place in the public imagination. Local handyman, Steve Travolta knows that the complexities of physics, chemical reactions and government legislation are no match for someone with a can-do attitude.
‘There is nothing like the wind through your hair at 40,000 feet,’ says Steve, ‘And It’s even better knowing that your survival doesn’t depend on the deliberations of some ivory tower science bof n. It’s just you and your instincts. No training, no supervision – you’re totally in control of your own destiny.’
Steve is a breath of fresh air in an overly cautious world.
‘When you think about it, more people were killed in car accidents last year than Zeppelin crashes. The government is always banging on about workplace safety and not sticking knives in toasters, but I mean what are they going to do, make you wear a seat belt, try to stop you drinking, ban watching YouTube while you’re driving? The way I see it, when your time’s up, there’s nothing you can do about it. You could go to bed tonight and wake up dead tomorrow! Better to die doing something you love, like hurtling towards the ground from a great height, engulfed in ames.’
