VINCE
GALET Vince is an FAA-certified pilot
trained in PA. He just loves to fly: "Best thing I ever
did!". Vince is also our weather guy: he checks all
forecasts thoroughly and will not fly if the winds are
not good enough. Vince has a perfect safety
record. DOUG QUITTNER Doug
is Sky Riders crew chief. He coordinates the team and he
is acting as the safety officer, assisting the pilot
with the final preparation and checks. Like Vince,
Doug attends safety seminars for continuing education.
Doug is also a student pilot. We
have a fun and experienced crew. Great
people. The crew helps
with balloon setup and packing. They also drive the
vehicle that follows the balloon.
Crewing is fun.
It is also the best way to learn how to be a balloonist.
We can always use more hands. -> Join our
crew and earn flight certificates!
What is more fun than
a hot air balloon? -> 2 (or 3) hot air balloons!
This allows for even more scenic flights, photo ops, and
camaraderie. This also enables larger parties to fly
together. We welcome multi-balloon flights
sometimes - when requested by
our guests or yours - or just for fun. The more the
merrier!
