”  We are very fortunate to have a unique Balloon for such adventures. Our Ultramagic
M105  G-YSHK has double layer fabric, and it offers amazing fuel economy, along with a
lightweight Tekno bottom end we don’t have to carry the obligatory 11 cylinders for such
a duration. In fact, we opted for 4 x 6 ltr and 1 x 4o ltr. Not much more than you would
use on a standard flight in a 105 balloon. “
