Still going but in frequently changing directions as guided by the promptings of @Jamie123 and @Sunday21

You wouldn't want a grand old thread like this to come to an end would you?

So for another exciting change of direction let's discuss "Professor Poopsnaggle and his Flying Steam Zeppelin"!

(If you don't know what I'm talking about check out...

...though with all the "boom boom chugga chugga" you may have to turn it off after 1 minute 9 seconds to avoid gnawing off your legs.)

I never actually "watched" the show per se, but I do remember it being on on Saturday mornings when I was getting my breakfast. What got me about it is that it wasn't so much a "Zeppelin"... this is a Zeppelin...

...as a bus with an undersized blimp tied to the top...

...with no propulsion other than two electric fans at the rear. So how did it fly...let alone keep up with a Quantas 747?
