I love to see Hot Air Balloons but nothing would induce me to go up in one.

There is an unwritten rule that you get a free flight if one comes down on your land.

I have had three flights over the years and they were not that scary, mind you I was pickled enough that I could probably have flown without a balloon. redface:

I have flown in one and it was a wonderful experience. When we took off it was more like the ground falling away rather than us rising up.

Now microlights...   eeek:

I was given a ride in one some years back. It was seriously scary.  shocked003
