- ―Elitas Travel description.
The Blimp is a semi-rigid airship featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the After Hours update, released on July 31st, 2018, during the Tale of Us Residency Week event.
Design
The Blimp appears as a plain, civilian counterpart of the Atomic Blimp and Xero Blimp, being simply named "Blimp". It has no livery by default but the player can choose 1 of 8 different liveries for their purchase, 1 of them corresponding to the name of their Nightclub, totaling to 9 possible Nightclub liveries and a total of 16 different combinations.
The blimp also has 4 exclusive liveries, one for each of the DJs; The Black Madonna, Dixon, Tale of Us and Solomun. These only appear during missions.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Blimp appears to perform identical to the Atomic Blimp and thus slightly slower than the Xero Blimp, both being very heavy planes with a large amount of drag.
It can be noted that the aircraft is just as weak as any other civilian plane and only appears to be more durable during its use in missions.

Purchasable Liveries
The following are liveries available on Elitás Travel. It should be noted that every Nightclub-named Blimp is exclusive to the player's Nightclub of the same name. If one changes their Nightclub name, the Nightclub-named Blimp purchased will also be changed to match this. Therefore, it is impossible to acquire all purchasable liveries.
