Standard Ride

Up to 6 passengers depending on temperature and passenger weight (usually 4 adult passengers), approximately 3 hours of adventure (from meeting until return after the flight)- $150.00+tax / person. If your party is not large enough to fill the basket there will be other people added to the flight.

Actual flight time will vary depending on weather conditions and landing areas available, usually between 45 minutes and an hour and 20 minutes.

We normally launch from our family farm South of Newton, Iowa, and land wherever the wind takes us!

If your party is large enough to fill the basket, we will fly anywhere in central Iowa except within 10 miles of the Des Moines International airport. If you have a location or landmark you would like to fly over, we will do our best to accommodate your wishes. We must charge mileage for flights outside Jasper County.

Tethering

$600.00 / hour plus milage at your location.

Tethering allows us to ascend about 50 - 60 feet, and take several passengers per hour.

We need an open area about 200 feet by 200 feet to tether, and very calm winds.

Flight Instruction

$600.00 / lesson if we supply the balloon and fuel (bring 3 friends along for the ride at no extra charge)

$125.00 / lesson using your balloon and fuel.

Each lesson lasts about an hour of flight time.

You must supply crew members, usually 3 people is about right.
