Would you like to send a Thank You note to someone, by flying it on a hot air balloon? The Thank You Balloon Campaign launched on 12th June 2020. The two balloon pilots who have taken the initiative hope to succeed in their goal of flying a hot air balloon across US and Europe, after receiving support and funds from Thank you messengers and the ballooning community.
For this crowdfunded project, so far, 26 pilots have signed up to fly the balloon powered with gratitude! Sitara Maruf of LTA-Flight Magazine talks with pilots Leandro Corradini and Mike DeBellis, about the Thank You Balloon Project.

The purpose of the challenge is to promote the benefits of hybrid aircraft which use two forms of lift: buoyancy like an airship and dynamic lift like an airplane. Lockheed Martin is the largest player in this space, while Solar Ship is a well-known leader in developing solar powered vehicles in this sector.
