Aerostar Aurora Balloons
I own two Aerostar Aurora balloons, an S49A 54K, and an S53A 69K. I have owned two other Aurora's in the past, and love the balloon.This website's goal is to show pictures of as many Aerostar Aurora balloons as I can find.
If you would like yours added, please send a picture to me:
