Here is a drone's eye view of downtown Long Beach. The Queen Mary and the dome that once housed the Spruce Goose are off to the right, just below all the container ships anchored offshore. The Goodyear blimp is at the top left.

Ahem. That's the Goodyear semi-rigid dirigible. The last of the blimps flew in 2017.
In the little boat in front of the Carnival Cruise line ship the QE2?

But you added a smilely face, so I'm probably misunderstanding your post.
I believe the Spruce Goose is now at the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum in Oregon, no?
Though I think the dome is still called the Spruce Goose Dome, as part of the Carnival Cruise Line terminal.
Uhm, I hope there won't be any knocking on the door later tonight.
Yea, I am in Canada, have not purchased a drone but am looking into the Mini-2. And that means I am looking into the restrictions. I do believe Canada restrictions on sub 250G drones are less onerous than American.
It seems to me that if you can see a manned aircraft that close, you should get out of dodge.
On the other hand, its hard to see how a 250G drone can bring down a blimp.
That's true, but send that 250 g into a fan turbine...
