12th Annual Hot Air Balloon Buyer's Guide
12th Annual Hot Air Balloon Buyer's Guide
Welcome again to Balloon Life's Annual Buyer's Guide, the most complete, independently produced listing of balloons and their manufacturers anywhere in the world. Through the years our purpose with this guide has never changed, namely to provide the prospective balloon buyer with a unique opportunity to compare the brands, makes, models, prices, options and philosophies of every U.S. type-certified balloon manufacturer at a single glance. While this guide is provided as a service to all potential buyers, it is directed at the newcomer to our sportÑthat person who is at the entry level of ballooning.
Below is a chart of new balloon sales in the U.S. over the last nine years. The information is from FAA registration information supplied by Airpac Listing Service in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The numbers were supplied to Balloon Life by Aerostar International. New balloon registration figures were derived from original raw data on total balloons registered in the U.S.
