Last week was the annual northern Maine balloon festival. Balloons launched from near the Presque Isle airport. My friend Sam, who owns an Aventura II, had his single-seat ultralight balloon there (just a chair underneath, not a basket). I flew up yesterday morning just as most balloons were landing (about 1 hr 20 min flight for me one way). Sam was still in the air and caught a couple short vids and pics of me flying by. He didn't have a radio, so we communicated by texting. He wanted me to fly close, but I didn't dare get too close!
