Goodyear blimp grounded after accident

The Spirit of America, one of three Goodyear airships operating in North America, has been involved in a minor accident. On Wednesday, the blimp broke loose from its moorings while landing at its base in Carson, California and drifted for 300 yards before crashing into a compost pile. There were no serious injuries and Goodyear says it is too early to say how bad is the damage, or how long the Spirit of America will be out of commission.
