Just one week later, we did another nice winter mountain flight together with some friends, taking off in Bad Hindelang and landing two hours later near Seeg. Could you imagine that over 400 hours and 14 years lie between the two envelopes? Thank you www.kubicekballoons.de! [...]
On the first weekend of February, we took part in the Tegernseer Tal Montgolfiade! Unfortunately, the great winter weather we enjoyed the week before didn’t quite last, but nevertheless we made a nice three hour flight from Bad Wiessee over Lake Starnberg right up to Weilheim, even scoring third place in the hare and hounds [...]
In the last week of January, we teamed up with some friends from Stuttgart to visit the “Kaiserwinkl Alpin Ballooning” at Kössen/Walchsee in Austria – and the weather couldn’t have been better! Two nice hops along the valley and two spectacular flights from Westendorf over the “Wilder Kaiser” out into the “Chiemgau” left nothing to [...]

2016 has been unbelievable :) Almost 100 flights, over 170 hours in the air… simply amazing! :D My heartfelt thanks to all who flew with me, crewed for me, captured these wonderful moments in pictures or otherwise contributed to this great passion of ballooning. You made this year an incredible adventure! Have a wonderful 2017 [...]
Every year around the 1st of November, the organisers of the “Eglofser Feuerzauber” hold a nice little meeting for their ballooning friends, and after having two rather bad years (concerning the weather at least), in 2014 everything was just perfect! :-) We even had guitar music on board during one of our long flights, and [...]
The passion of a lifetime: To behold the stunning beauty of our world like no one else, free like a bird, high in the sky, yet one with nature, using the oldest principle of flight known to man: Lighter than air.
No wings, no noise, no pressure… just serenity, just perfect bliss. At one with the elements… at one with yourself.
This is why we live A LIFE OF BALLOONING.
