Balloons Over New England - Flight Agreement

Flight Agreement
Congratulations!! You have been signed on for a balloon flight with Balloons Over New England.

Please Read and SUBMIT prior to flight.
Warning: asking questions answered here may result in a small fine.

A few things you should know:

We fly seven days a week, weather permitting, weather permitting, weather permitting.
Ballooning is an outdoor activity! So don't wear clothes you are too fond of. It will not be noticeably colder in the balloon than on the ground.
Hiking boots are perfect, sneakers are O.K., sandals are silly and high heels don't fly (so to speak), and they may get wet!
Many people like to wear a hat, especially tall people.
For our safety (and by extension, yours) we fly only in the calmest of conditions. The pilot has the final decision on weather or not we fly. Our record is unblemished and we aim to keep it that way.
Mother Nature is ultimately in charge of this program and she may require that you experience the joy of anticipation one or more times. For all her grace, beauty and power, she does not care about us on a personal level.
Ballooning is a NO WHINING adventure. Whining may void your certificate, or we may hit you with another, larger, fine.
Motto:" I would rather be on the ground wishing I had gone flying, than up in the air wishing I had stayed on the ground."

We understand that many passengers are uncomfortable disclosing their weight. Our need to know is for safety and scheduling reasons (has to do with 'lift capacity'). The weight information is for our eyes only! So please be as accurate as possible. We have several balloons of varying sizes and choose which balloon to fly depending on combined passenger weight. If it makes you feel better ~ we'll share OUR weight with YOU when we meet!!

Acknowledgement of Personal Responsibility
I acknowledge that my participation in a hot air balloon flight is a potentially hazardous activity. I understand that during my participation in hot air balloon flight I will be exposed to above normal risks of injury. I understand too, that although Balloons Over New England has taken precautions to provide safety preparations for each flight, it is impossible to guarantee absolute safety. I understand that I share in the responsibility for safety in flight, and I accept that responsibility.

Man was not designed to fly; if you let your feet leave the ground you invite increased risk.
