After every flight we'll put pictures of
the folks who flew with us on this page.
This page is dedicated to the memory
of Errol Van Eaton, exemplary pilot of hot air balloons and almost every
other aircraft that flies. He is sorely missed.
Feel free to download and tell
your friends to look for you here! Click on the date you flew. We'll leave the photos up for a month at least, but if you don't find your picture here, please email us and we'll email it to you! These lower-resolution photos are free to download.
