We are safely back home from the 6. Horber Neckar-Balloncup while our Brithsh friends still have some miles to go! It was a great event again with wonderful weather, only the last flight on Saturday evening had to be cancelled due to thunderstorms in the area – but that finally gave us some time to [...]

Yesterday evening was a tricky one for our competition director: Almost no wind on the ground! The task setting he came up with, eight virtual columns oriented in a circle around Hochdorf, provided both fun and thrill: The best pilot would be the one who flew the greatest horizontal distance in all the columns together.

Another cracking morning over Horb =) Early Friday came with five tasks and a lot of sunshine… amazing views of the Alps in the distance! [...]

Wednesday evening was just amazing =) Sooo many balloons at #GEMAB23… Chambley at its best! [...]

On Tuesday afternoon, noone really believed that we would fly in the evening. But the weather predictions proved true, and up we went! =) The controller from Lorraine airport was very friendly, and so we could continue our flight in his CTR towards the south-east… don’t think we’ve ever flown that far from Chambley!
