Busy April

So busy since the last blog...have not had time to keep up!!!......balloon launched all over the area, two flights per day in many cases and a few funny incidents too!........including the three emergency services rushing to the landing site after someone reported that the balloon had landed in a tree on fire!!!!....not true, a normal landing .......firecrew were just happy it was a false alarm......that same landing took another twist when we had to get the landowner to cut down a tree so we could gain access!

Many of the recent flights have been in stunning weather with great visibility and very happy clients.

April 25th took the pilot and myself to London to 'tether' a balloon at the start line of the marathon as Virgin were main sponsors........1.00am start from Wiltshire.....4.30am flight brief!!!......breakfast at a nice cafe which included smoked salmon!!!!
What an inspirational site watching all those mad people going through the start line. Puts my faith in humans, knowing the pain many of them go through to raise money to help others.........
