A test drive in one of the biggest vehicles I've ever seen.
Gaius Goodliffe takes Robbie Riptide and me for a test run in his blimp. For the large size, it is actually able to move. The ship is separated into 12 (soon to be 4 with Havok) pieces that appear to try and catch up as the ship moves. Gaius demonstrated it moving up, down, turning, and forward. Gaius even took us for a sim crossing. The ship then attempted to move into non-existant sim and ran into problems. As Gaius says - You can cross sims, but you can’t fly outside of reality entirely. he also suggests linking furnature to the ship if you want to have more company during the ride. It was an impressive ride.
