Balloon System Inspection
Back in beautiful Oregon after driving a balloon system I purchased all the way East in Flint, Michigan. The system has good maintenance logs and is in fine shape with only 62 flight hours on the basket, burners and fuel tanks etc. Very exciting to unload and assemble the system with fellow Pacific Spaceflight members -- we will be displaying our pressure suits and balloon gear at the annual Yuri's Night Space Party on 12 April at the Pearson Air Museum! A lot of fun and excitement in the works!
