This Monday evening, we took off from the gas balloon launch site at D\u00fcsseldorf-Eller for another hydrogen training flight! Cruising through the evening on a low inversion layer, we hit Frankfurt right at it’s center, having an awesome view of the airport that had just closed for the night. Flying further, we passed the Odenwald, Heilbronn, Stuttgart and reached Sigmaringen at sunrise. Then we continued to Ravensburg, Leutkirch, Kempten and finally to Seeg, where our friends welcomed us warmly. Altogether, we covered a distance of over 550 kilometers (flight path) in 23 hours and 20 minutes. What an awesome adventure! :-)<\/p>\n
A huge THANK YOU to the D\u00fcsseldorfer Aero-Klub e.V.<\/a>, to our wonderful club Ballonsportgruppe Stuttgart e.V.<\/a> and to Kubicek Balloons Deutschland<\/a> for landing help and dinner! ;-)<\/p>\n <\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This Monday evening, we took off from the gas balloon launch site at D\u00fcsseldorf-Eller for another hydrogen training flight!
