Aerostar S71A Balloons

This website's goal is to show pictures of as many Aerostar S57A balloons as I can find.
If you would like yours added, please send a picture to me:

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.
