Hats off to the guys for scratch building this hot air balloon. Its' just a shame that it was too windy to see it up in the air.
We had the Churchill tank on standby in case the balloon needed tethering.

Don't the US Government will think it's a spy balloon and shoot it down over the great plain basin then where would we be.....but owning a blimp or balloon would be cool I'll admit

Maybe paint a very large white star will help ?

Lol....No that's only good for Texas....make it shaped like a teddy bear or something you'd be ok I think. POOR joe Dirt wouldve been toast.....I remember once when I was 7 out camping and waking up to dozens of hit air balloons aloft for a festival in Hermiston Oregon they are quite the sight to see....
