Launch of the Gas Balloon - Calvin
The Hydrogen Gas Balloon, Calvin, departed the shop at approximately 7:50PM on 8/4/2010 for an overnight flight into the heart of Texas. Sincere thanks to all the Houston balloonists and friends who showed up to help and watch.
The flight was spectacular as most all gas flights are. We slowly moved up toward College Station then as the sun came up, swung around to a more easterly direction landing between Bedias and Montgomery, TX.
Thanks again, we will post on this site the next scheduled launch when it is planned.
Next Launch: Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta - Americas Challenge. Tuesday, October 5, 2010 late afternoon.
We represent Lindstrand Balloons USA, the makers of the worlds finest Hot Air Balloons. Please call or email us for details, prices and renderings of your corporate logo. We can produce any balloon you can dream of.
