Hey,
well where to start, I guess a brief description of me background in 
ballooning. I started crewing for my parents when they began 
ballooning 12 yrs ago, I was 7 at the time, by the age of 10 I had 
already started the process of flight training (unfortunatly, nothing 
was logged untill I was around 16!). after MANY flights with various 
instructors, I soloed one afternoon out on the mesa @ ABQ in 99. This 
compleated my local sport licence, then last year I had this 
converted to a US private and did my check ride in Reno.

I haven't got a project on the go @ the moment (too buisy gettin an 
education) But I hope to make a start in the next break! Im goin 
experimental for a couple of reasons, firstly, I recon its gonna be 
heaps of fun, secondly, with the rising cost of buyin a 'factory' 
balloon, I have only one other option avaliable, and Im not ready to 
do any corprate stuff at the moment, I just wanna enjoy the sport for 
a while!

So thats me, I tried to keep it short but it dont seem to have worked 
too well!!
