This morning, competition chief Thomas gave us the task to do a fly in from Söll, located in the next valley to the north, to Kirchberg. We didn’t score quite that good at the target, but as we had no retrieve, it was even more important for us to land somewhere near to where our [...]
Sunday evening at Kirchberg was just awesome! As it was a free flight tonight, we set ourselves the goal to fly in to the Kirchberg launch site again – and made it again! =) After that, we were in for a wonderful sunset, a spectacular night glow and some pretty nice fireworks :) Now time [...]
Today’s morning flight marked the start of the competition at Kirchberg – and we managed the fly in from Westendorf to Kirchberg so well that we scored 1000 points! :-) Obviously, not only we were having fun with the balloons, but the cows on the ground as well… ;-) [...]

The balloon meeting at Bad Griesbach (near Passau) is one of our favourites every summer – and it was just beautiful once more! From Friday morning on, we could do three flights and two night glows, until the weather was merciful enough to let us sleep in on Sunday. What a great weekend! =) [...]
