Aerostar S50A Balloons

This website's goal is to show pictures of as many Aerostar S50A balloons as I can find.
If you would like yours added, please send a picture to me:
ksproul@skychariot.com

Spedcial thanks to Alyssa Brown at Balloonacy Limited.
She has put a lot of effort into putting many Aerostar balloons pictures up on FaceBook in the Raven/Aerostar group.
All of the Design Sheets and Factory Inflation pictures came from her.

"For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards,
for there you have been and there you will long to return."

- Leonardo da Vinci

"It is possible to fly without motors, but not without knowledge and skill."
- Wilbur Wright

"Ballooning is a philosophy of life. You're a prisoner of the wind. You can swear, shout, pray, cry - and it doesn't matter.
But if you change your altitude, you can go a different direction"

- Bertrand Piccard

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the number of moments that take our breath away."
- Will Smith

"A jack of all trades is a master of none,
but oftentimes better than a master of one."

-William Shakespeare

"Time is the most valuable gift you can give someone"
- Unknown
