G-DIPZ Hopper

Owner: Matt Joyce

C of A Status: TETHER ONLY

Built by Thunder & Colt in 1988 to go alongside its big brother Tub-80 G-DIPI, we are delighted to be looking after G-DIPZ, welcomed back to Bristol in 2021! It's got just over 30 hours logged and had branding removed with large yellow patches since its commercial days with Virgin Airship & Balloon Company. 

In 2022 we managed stand ups at the Midlands Air Festival and Sky Safari, where both shape and hopper inflated together.
