WHAT IS A HOT AIR BALOON?
A hot air balloon is a very simple type of aircraft
that you can use to fly from one place to another.
HOW HOT AIR BALLOON
WORKS?
The working of an hot air balloon is simple. It is
made up of a balloon-shaped envelope in which
you fill hot air.
The balloon is made up of a nylon material with a
heat resistant material at the mouth where the
burner is. The liquid propane fuel is stored in
cylinders in the wicker basket below. Hot air
balloons cannot navigate on their own .They must
rely on the wind to push them in any particular
direction.
Since, the wind at different altitudes blow in
different directions, The navigator of the balloon
can increase or decrease the amount of hot air and that air becomes lessdens inside the balloon than
make it rise and fall and take you on a magical the air outside in fact warm air always floarts up.

SAFETY LAUNCH AND
HOW WAS THAT KEEP THE LANDING
BALLOON UP THEIR?
The set-up of a hot air balloon last between 20-40
minutes, depending on its size and the physical
shape of the team. First we have to find an
appropriate launce field .The chosen place has to
reach a 5m x 50m surface without obstacles,
made of grass if possible. The preparation of the
launching and landing by steps are;
Inside and outside the balloon there are many
molecules of air moving around and taking up
space. When the balloon is on the ground and
ready to go it has some air inside it and that air is
the same temperature as the outside the balloon
so that air molecules are all moving around at the
same speed and are just far apart from each other
both inside and outside but then one balloon pilot
makes the air inside the hot air balloon hot. These
balloons doesn’t have engines that airplanes do. 1.Mounting of the basket
