Also called: Blimp Ground Crew, Airship Line Handler
Travels with a blimp from city to city, catching its lines on landing and keeping it safely moored at its mast.
As the blimp comes in low over a field, you and a dozen crewmates grab its dangling lines and walk it to a mast truck. Through the night you take turns watching the wind and adjusting the ballast so it doesn't pitch up. Then the whole crew drives to the next city on the tour.
Includes travel per diem.
