The Balloon FlightMany view hot air ballooning with curiosity and mystique. What is it like up there? What can you see? What about the landing? Is it cold? Since 1987 Aerosaurus have given pleasure to over 60,000 passengers who have experienced the magic of a hot air balloon ride, let us provide some of the answers. A balloon flight is unlike other forms of flying; your visibility is through 360 degrees and your flight feels uninhibited. A model world appears below, familiar landmarks take on new perspectives, whether you are close to the ground viewing wildlife, or up amongst the clouds marvelling at their powdery appearance, you will be intrigued by this aerial mystery tour. Take A Look at a Balloon Flight With This Movie!
A Hot Air Balloon moves with the wind direction and whatever the wind speed you feel no movement or breeze, plus you have the radiant heat from the burners; even in mid-winter you are far warmer in the air than on the ground. Binoculars, video or camera are a must. Bring plenty of film/card memory.
Aerosaurus Balloons accept bookings for individuals or groups of up to 100 people. Individuals or small parties are combined with other parties to make up complete flights. On such a special occasion people combine well together to mutually experience this thrill of a lifetime. Hot Air Balloons are flown first thing in the morning and last thing in the day during daylight hours from spring to autumn and occasionally throughout the day in the winter.
If we are unable to fly on your preferred date your flight is moved forward to to the next mutually convenient date. For these reasons we cannot guarantee balloon flights on specific dates. Most importantly there must be wind speeds of less than 12 mph, reasonable visibility, a stable atmosphere and no rain or snow. Extended hot air balloon flights of approximately 1 1/2 hours duration are also available by special arrangement.
