why the heck is he listed under "P" and not under "M"? "Peter M" was my first guess, but I checked "M" for the name and didn't find anyone, so I though "Ok, Peter M does not exist"

...I could be wrong and you could still be right - or it might be Peter Gee (Gee = Italian-American for 1000 ie Grand)

I think you are right, but I don't understand why he is listed under "P"

that might be stretching it a bit.. all Americans may refer to $1,000 as a 'G'

both other guesses good though, be curious to see what the answer is

The answer is indeed Peter M. Clap

'Ride out' with less space is Rideout
Rideout on a first name basis is of course our beloved Peter
And 'M' is the Roman number for 1000

Who's next?

No idea. But, since I'm with E&O I'll look into it.

I once read a review of them where the reviewer said "this zeppelin is too heavy to take off", and your riddle reminded me of it.
here is mine.
