After having crewed at the Horber Neckar-Balloncup several times, it has always been a dream to experience this wunderful little event as a pilot… and in 2021, it finally came true! =) And we couldn’t have chosen a better year for this. 6 out of 6 flights was a first even for Horb… and oh, [...]
With just one night at home in between, we continued our summer trip from France to Italy to fly at the ‘Sagrantino Cup’ at Todi, just as the years before… and again, the relaxed holiday meet in Umbria didn’t disappoint!

We are sooo happy that after more than seven months, we are finally allowed to resume doing what we do best: Sharing our passion for ballooning with our passengers :-) Takeoff: 15 meters apart. Landing: Envelope to envelope! Thanks everyone involved for such a great morning =) [...]
