My
first hotair balloon flight
See routemap
Flying a hotair balloon require certain weather conditions. At start and landing the maximum wind should not exceed 5m/sec.
Our first flight was postponed three times. On September 22 our pilot had received favourable forecast from the met office.
Instead of an evening flight he suggested early morning and we agreed in order not to put off the flight later in the autumn.
The prevailing winds took us too fast up to 300metres and the morning fog, usual this time of the year, gave us hazy visibility.
From a lower altitude the photos could have been better. See some of them at New air views of Sibbo
Next flight in clear weather and slowly just above the tree tops!
