Maryland State Fair August 1999

Another pilot just happen to take this picture of the balloon I was flying during the Maryland State Fair. This is one of those very rare times that a pilot gets a picture of the balloon he is flying. This balloon is called "My Sky". It stands aprox. 80 feet tall, 60 feet in diameter, and is 105,000 cubic feet of air inside the envelope. Look close and you will see the flying champagne bottle getting ready to inflate beside me.
