Well known names like Eastern, National and Pan Am, all long gone now. Most of the blue collar workers lived in Hialeah while most of the pilots and executives lived, as we used to say, "on the other side of the canal" in Miami Springs. Many fond memories!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2005664004624191266.post-21087935739508399152013-11-15T17:25:43.257-05:002013-11-15T17:25:43.257-05:00It was a sad day when the blimp moved up the coast...It was a sad day when the blimp moved up the coast. The blimp used to travel north during hurricane season and one of the crew told me thay would find bullet holes and arrows in the skin when it landed. There was only 1/2 lb difference in the internal pressure and the outside pressure so no real damage was done.WWWnoreply@blogger.com
