I am a commercial pilot located in Southern Indiana, but I will travel anywhere if there is enough fun to be had. I generally fly more passenger flights than competition. I love to share ballooning with first time passengers.
Hey mate, well nothing to be honest, our licensing system is in turmoil at the moment and from what I know there is no requirements at this point. CAA is working on it and have been for the past 4 years. All I would suggest is taking a flight with a pilot so you can get an idea of the land. Its all about cattle (cows), livestock is a big industry here.
Hi Casey, from what I understand I don't think NZ has formal licensing. There's a kiwi on here called Michael Toulson, he'll be able to help you if you leave a message on his page.
I am making a series of videos showing all sides of ballooning and would like to use your pics in them? It is just going to be pics and videos all set to music and is purely for fun. You can go to my page and see one I just did to get an idea of what I am talking about.
Yep, Deffinately! We are going into negotiations with few last sponsors and getting the hotel roms. What I need from you though is a copy of your insurance with Indiana State University added on as additionally insured for that weeked. I'm going to try to get everyone reimbursed for it all, but this is what the university lawyer needs. Let me know k. This is for each balloo, pilot.
