Special
The first modern hot air balloon was designed and built in 1960 by Ed Yost. He made the first free flight of such an aircraft in Bruning, Nebraska on 22 October 1960.
Initially equipped with a plastic envelope and kerosene fuel, Yost's designs rapidly moved onto using a modified propane powered "weed burner" to heat the air and lightweight nylon fabric for the envelope material.

One that takes you on soaring trips above the earth and the beauty of nature. With the wind in your hair and the unfolding scenery below come spend time using their preferred way of travel.
We have your ticket and are waiting at the next balloon stop.
