The Blue Ridge slid above the clouds, just barely enough for a clear line of sight to the docking bay, even as the Zeppelin, operating under radio silence, used one of its semaphore lights to blink a message back to the planes coming up in line astern formation.<em>"Dock is opening; please wait for the signal."</em><br/><br/>Under the Zeppelin, a pair of massive doors opened in the vessel's underbelly, before what looked like a metal girder extended from the opening.<em>"Blue Ridge to all planes; first come, first served; hope you guys remember how to properly dock on a Zeppelin; It's a bit trickier than landing on an airfield."</em>
