Re: airplane - how to
I've never heard the word "blimp" before, but I learned something today, thx:
Blimp
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blimp
A blimp, or non-rigid airship, is an airship (dirigible) without an internal structural framework or a keel. Unlike semi-rigid and rigid airships (e.g. Zeppelins), blimps rely on the pressure of the lifting gas (usually helium, rather than hydrogen) inside the envelope and the strength of the envelope itself to maintain their shape. The origin of the word "blimp" has been the subject of some confusion.
Colonel Blimp
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonel_Blimp
Colonel Blimp is a British cartoon character by cartoonist David Low, first drawn for Lord Beaverbrook's London Evening Standard in April 1934. Blimp is pompous, irascible, jingoistic, and stereotypically British, identifiable by his walrus moustache and the interjection "Gad, Sir!"
Low claimed that he developed the character after overhearing two military men in a Turkish bath declare that cavalry officers should be entitled to wear their spurs inside tanks. The character was named after the barrage balloon, which was known as a blimp.
Burton LMR
https://battlefield.fandom.com/wiki/Burton_LMR
The Burton LMR is a weapon featured in Battlefield 1. The weapon makes mechanical use of its distinctive dual magazine setup by having the right magazine loaded with normal bullets and the left magazine equipped with incendiary ammunition. Using the fire selector allows the user to switch between magazines, and therefore ammo type.
It should be noted that the Incendiary Ammo does less damage to infantry that the standard ammo. However, its incendiary ammo does more damage to airplanes, and is one of the few infantry weapons that can damage Airships (both standard and Behemoth).
