I would certainly recommend Aerosaurus to anyone thinking of taking a balloon flight. The pilot and crew were excellent, the whole experience, most professional. Julie in the office was always helpful and the pre flight telephone check, the evening before worked well. We were blessed with a lovely morning, so all was magic" Cheryl Luckock, 17th June 2008

The views are breathtaking and we reached a mile high in the sky! Our pilot colin was first class. Totally brilliant and we felt absolutely safe in his hands. We helped to set the balloon up and pack it away too and afterwards i felt a real sense of achievement. Brilliant value for money and highly recommended!" Robert Wilcox, 13th May 2008

"I have, as requested, filled in the small survey, but I need to tell you personally what an absolutely brilliant experience we had! My wife has wanted to go up in a balloon for as long as she can remember, and despite the earlier cancellation, (April 6th snowstorm!) she was eagerly anticipating the flight,as was I. Needless to say, the whole experience was a joy from start to finish, largely due to the skill and professionalism of both the "ground"crew,and Colin,the pilot .I am afraid I have been boring all my associates stupid at work today,but if it results in any of them booking a flight,then I can only say that your organisation thoroughly deserves the business,so thank you once again for a most memorable day" Chris and Angela Lane, 12 May 2008

regards" Mark Jenkins, 6th May 2008

" A brilliant and joyous experience. The whole operation was well planned and well executed, made perfect by having Arthur Street as the pilot.

Donald Upton, 17th April 2008

"We are sending an e-mail to say how much we enjoyed our flight with you on Sunday evening.

Please extend our thanks to all concerned. Thank you - and we shall have no hesitation to recommend the experience to friends etc" Michael Newman, 28th August 2007

"Thank you for a truly memorable day. Taking a balloon flight was on of my life long ambitions and I was not disappointed. Launching from the Tavistock Balloon Fiesta probably added a sparkle to the experience, flying over my parent's house (and my old stomping grounds) also added a personal wow factor, but overall the entire flight was amazing.

Where do I start, getting stuck in with the inflation, the large un cramped basket, knowledgeable and friendly pilot (Mandy), Champagne at 5,000ft, beautiful sunshine, gliding through the sky with 30 or so other balloons, visibility of about 15-20 miles all round, landing on a golf course and even packing the balloon away at the end of the day. Totally and completely brilliant from start to finish. I would not hesitate to recommend your service to anyone, and I would not hesitate to fly with you again. Hopefully I will get the chance. I think I have got the bug!" Paul Tresise, 27th August 2007

"What a superb experience, a fantastic start to the day and what an experience, the views of Devon were stunning and watching the mist burn off and add even to the views was even more magical. Thank you so very much for everything" Samantha Riley, 27th August 2007

"On the 11 August my son and I flew from Launceston on one of your balloons it was one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life. Thank you for making it a very special evening" Mike Gillard, 19th August 2007

"Thank you for a fantastic experience last night 10th August. The views were simply awesome, for someone who doesn't like heights I found the flight very safe and secure and your staff were professional and very friendly. The views from the Needles to Portland Bill and beyond were magical. I will definitely recommend you and will probably see you again for another flight. Thank you for such a memorable evening" Eric Cheatle, 11th August 2007

"Many thanks to all at Aerosaurus. All of the staff in your office to whom we have spoken have been friendly, patient and very helpful. On the day of our flight the "ground crew" and Simon the pilot were all polite, friendly, good humoured and above all totally professional. We had a great time and for once, this summer, the weather was perfect. We could not have asked for more. We hope to fly with you again before too long and will have no hesitation in recommending Aerosaurus to our friends, family, colleagues or indeed anyone who wants to have a brilliant flying experience" Ian Thorpe, 10th August 2007

"We thoroughly enjoyed the flight. Adrian was extremely helpful on the phone with the booking so that our daughter who was only here for a few days was extremely lucky with the weather and got her trip. Thank you. And I got an extra treat as there was a space for one which I got!!! We took with us a young student who will be 21 next week and he said the flight was something he would never forget.

I must say I was feeling a bit wary about the landing but the Pilot did a wonderful job, I didn't even feel a bump. A totally wicked flight, thanks. I'll never forget seeing a small Larch plantation from above, it could easily have been an extreme close up of Moss (or not). Anyway thanks again and see you sometime" Trevor Mortimore, 6th August 2007
