Holloman Balloon Rally
The base commander enlisted the aid of his pilot from the White Sands Balloon Rally to assemble a group of balloons to fly more than 100 Team Holloman members. The flight was scheduled for the first weekend in December 2005 and due to weather the flight had to be scrubbed. They decided to try again in January and this time I was available.
Here we are in 2008 and we are having the second Holloman AFB Balloon Rally. The same balloons were invited back from the 2006 rally. Once again we had loads of Holloman AFB personnel to crew and have fist time flight. I tried to get in most of them in the pictures below. We had a great flight and the base commander provided us with a tour of the new mission at Holloman. Impressive aircraft.
