What Is Islam? Islam is not just another religion. It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham. Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God. It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone. It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine. The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as: { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4) Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus. Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him

@macbook320 11 лет назад

Hi, do you need to schedule a flight with your local airport before you fly? Also, what's the ideal weather conditions to fly a balloon? Thanks.

@bertjack-jack9632 7 лет назад

@andrewstrange6570 5 лет назад

OK lets give you a better answer than Albert did with just No! beacuse we don't usually fly in controlled airspace (around aireports with jets and stuff) we don't need to file a flight schedule. also with a powerd plane you can fly around in circles and go where you like, with a balloon you go where the wind goes. Ideal weather is clear skies light wings at ground level andout 10mph or less and the cool of the day early morning or late evenig (itsa hot air balloon) remembering that you have to be on the ground before dusk. becuase you can't see power lines and things like that. Unlike microlite and parasailers a hot air balloon is a registered aircraft and you do require a piolts license to fly and a commercial pilots license yust like an airline pilot. So you have to do all the exams just like any other pilot. The reral question is when are you going up?

@andrewstrange6570 5 лет назад

You can buy a hot air balloon complete second hand with a trailer from around £5000 but you can join a local club and be in a sindicate and own part of the balloon and take turns in flying and ground crewing. then you have less outlay and only the cost of the gas for the flight.

@undercover_secret_agent1726 9 лет назад

how do you steer it?

@bertjack-jack9632 7 лет назад

U don't

@andrewstrange6570 5 лет назад

Actually you do and can stear the balloon. because you have to have a pilots license to fly you have to learn about weather anmd winds. So while you cant actually turn a corner what you do if you want to go another direction is take the balloon up or down in altitude as winds can change direction beween say 100mts and 300mts and then you may have to go up to 1500mts. on may balloons you can rotate it on its axis with flaps on the sides and by pulling on cords open the a little vents in the sides and let air out and like the space shuttles little thruster jets it spins you round slowly. knowing the winds and how to use them is very important in balloon racing and competition. Yes, we have them and it's very similar to yeach racing.

@ravishori 8 лет назад

where from can we buy this hot air balloon

@bertjack-jack9632 7 лет назад

from the manufacturer

@andrewstrange6570 5 лет назад

there are many place to obtain a hot air balloon. did you want a new one or a second hand one. New can set you back £20,000 up to £70,000and more. Professional balloons can cost £250,000. Second Hand balloons from £2,500. I would suggest if you are really interestd to contact a local ballooning group and spend some time with them, do some ground crewing and have a few flights and then look at getting a balloon. Unlike a microlite or parasailing a balloon pilot has to have a pilots lisence just like any registered air craft pilot. Yes balloons are a registered aircraft. You need to do exams on weather, mapping, radio, etc, etc and have to learn to fly a balloon and fly 4 flights with an examiner. So take the first step and go along to a local group and go from there.

@orangeracer223 12 лет назад

how dose that fabrick not burn or melt?

@bertjack-jack9632 7 лет назад

it melts when the burner touches it

@andrewstrange6570 5 лет назад

No it's not flamer risristant but heat risistand and don't forget it only has to be hotter inside the balloon than outside. there is actually a strip inside at the top much like the temprature you measue a baby with in the forehead. each year when the balloon is air worthyed it is checked and very rarely get hotter than 80 or 90 degrees C. and what it tend to do is melt rather than burn. It is a special fabric called ripstock which is a thin poyimer material with thread running through it to stop tears from spreading. It is very rare that you will see a balloon burn as when we see we have caught it at the mouth we turn the burner off and this is only when we are infalting the balloon. that dig flame you see only goes about a 5th the way uop inside. the biggest problem we have is landing on a bush and ripping the material.

@andrewstrange6570 5 лет назад

are you in the UK, If so look up Adventure Balloons on the internet. there you can fly in a balloon with up to 18/20 passangers in the same balloon. this takes away a lot of fear and the amount of people that have flown ahve always come down wanting to book another flight. anyone can be apassanger as long as they can see over the basket say 10-12 and we have lown people as old as 90+ and they have had the thrill and tranquiity of their lives. we even have a basket designed to take disabbled passangers in a wheele chair as the basket has perspec sides so they can see out while still seated in their chair, with a roll on roll off gate at the end to board. And if you think you're too frail to climb in and jump around we load you while the basket is still on it's side and you are on a seat so as the basket becomes upright so do you and then you are in the standing position. I guess the only people that would not benefit from a hot air balloon ride would be the blind but I'm prepared to be proved wrong on that one too. most countries have commercial balloon operators.

depend where you are and which country but the best id to locate your local hot air ballooning group.

@NazriB 10 лет назад

I heard that fart gas is denser than helium gas which makes filling up balloons faster.

@andrewstrange6570 5 лет назад

OK there are two types of balloons Hot air balloons which use propane gas with a burner to heat the air inside the envelpe. Then there are lighter than air gas balloons that can be hellium or hydrogen, both lighter than air gasses. Your farts and methane which as you correctly stated are denser than helliumand air, so would in fact not be used to fill a gas filled balloon. and it would not be used to heat a hot air balloon becuse the thermal BTU's are less than propane thus you would need a bigger burner and a logt more farts. Stick to lighting your farts. Hahaha.

Going to use this in training as a very good example of the lack of safety from the pilot and the crew. I saw it was a C- registered balloon so guessing by the accents and registration it's Canadian but I bet your instructor would have a fit if he saw it. Also the lack of training of the ground crew. I going to show it at a local pilots group evening and see if they can pick up att the mistakes. Very sloppy and very lucky. Give you a big hin't on the first NO NO, where the hell was the teather?

Just because its done doesn't make it right, clever or safe. A gust of wind can come from anywhere and if your still getting passangers on-board just imagine the consequences.

Actually with todays modern burners it looks like one burner but you have one inside the other. I have both types and on our 350 and 425 professional balloons 4 burners and on our 225 a 3 burner. It vey much depends also where you are flying. our 4 burner units have what we call whisper burners that are not so noisey for when we fly over farms and don't want to startle animals. But yes on my personal T&C77 I have he two burners but on my Lindstrand championship racer I have the one. Horses for courses.
