Simple question, how do you calculate speed of a vehicle that's operating in blimp mode? Seems wrong to use anything based off of ground speed.
I was permanently banned from the forums for consistently attacking my fellow posters and trolling the boards. I thought I could get "revenge" on FastJack for being banned by updating my sig to insult him, but all it proved was how much of an idiot I am.

Depends on which direction the wind is blowing.  ;D

Any way the wind blows. Doesn't really matter to me.

Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead...

Never did a drive-by in a blimp before!  ;D
