Inglewood Hot air balloon ridesHot air balloon rides are very popular in Inglewood, and you may delight in this wonderful interest when the weather is good. While many people have never even been up close to a ballon, those who have taken off in one remember this marvellous experience forever!Hot air balloon rides can be had by all ages. Most excursions last more or less an hour, but check with your pilot to find out what is available. Several have several trips to buy from.
Be sure to bring a camera and plenty of film! You'll be surprised at how many pictures you take before, during and after your flight. Bring more film or memory than you think you'll use. Once you're in the air and snapping away you sure don't want to be surprised by running out! You can bring cameras for still or video, and we suggest you carry them in a protective case. Your pilot may ask you to put your cameras away during landing to make sure there are no objects that could fly out of your hand and hurt someone. Once you're on the ground you can start shooting again.
As you look for Hot air balloon rides in Inglewood, understand that your ride may be rescheduled if conditions are unsafe. Don't expect to fly if it is unstable or too hot. Bring your camera and plenty of film, because you'll take many more snap shots than you expect.

Once airborne, balloons just float with the wind. It is true that the pilot doesn't know where the balloon will land ahead of time, but that doesn't mean he can't control the flight. Before the balloon is launched, the pilot knows which way the wind is blowing so he knows which way the balloon will go. The air is in layers, and the different layers may be moving in different directions. So even though the pilot can't steer the balloon, he can move up and down to find a layer of air that will allow the balloon to change direction. Some days the amount of change is very small; other days the balloon may be able to actually turn around and fly in the opposite direction.
