After breakfast, Han Xuan rode Pooh and set off. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

With a gentle breeze blowing today, it's a great day for a hot air balloon ride.

I called the resort at home, and the other party was ready to go, just waiting for him to pass.

It is the dream of countless people to be able to soar in the sky in a colorful hot air balloon and see the beautiful scenery of the land at a glance.

For some people, it may be difficult to achieve in a lifetime.

Not so difficult for Han Xuan, the Snow Mountain Resort now has fourteen hot air balloons for tourists to use.

After the news of the new heated balloons and paragliding in the Snow Mountain Ranch spread, it attracted many admirers, and the guests who came to the spring outing in recent times are no less than the winter ski season.

A hot air balloon ride will cost a total of $75 per person.

Or you can wrap a ball, which costs $490 at a time and lasts about forty-five minutes, but you need to be accompanied by a staff member.

A total of about ten people can be seated in the gondola, depending on the size of the passengers, no more than 750 kilograms.

Tourists in tour groups generally charter the whole ball, which is more cost-effective.

missed the time to enjoy the sunrise, and when Han Xuan arrived at the designated place, he could see an empty field, and a group of people were busy sorting out the airbags.

The white cloth depicts a cartoon panda, which has been seen in the sky before, and Barry is anxious to chase it......

"Hello, Han.

I'm Joshua, and I'm here to take you on a flight. ”

An ordinary-looking big-nosed young man no more than twenty-five years old, with a full head of light red hair, came up to Han Xuan and said.

Jason is not worried about hot air balloons.

After going to heaven, the lives of his own people were about to be handed over to this young man named Joshua, and he asked, "Man, is this thing safe?"

I used to see on the news that a hot air balloon in Turkey burned up during its flight, and all eight people died, which seems to be quite dangerous. ”

Han Xuan immediately glared at Jason, a disappointing guy, and said angrily: "Bah! What is a hot air balloon burning!"

"I'm just in case, it's better to ask......"

Joshua smiled and shook his head: "No, I have driven a hot air balloon more than 900 times, and there has never been any danger."

The hot air balloon fire you mentioned was caused by improper operation, and the flames emitted by the burner were too big to burn the air bag.

Even if it catches fire, as long as you use a fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire and fall quickly, you can generally escape safely, and our seven-level ball is the most advanced hot air balloon on the market.

It has two combustion systems, and if one of them breaks, the other can be started at any time, which is very safe. ”

Han Xuan asked him curiously, "What is a seventh-level hot air balloon?"

"Level 7 refers to the volume of a hot air balloon after it has been inflated.

The volume of the seventh-stage sphere is 2000-2400 cubic meters, the eighth-level sphere is 2400-3000 cubic meters, the nine-stage sphere is 3000–4000 cubic meters, and the tenth-stage sphere is 4000–6000 cubic meters.

The bigger the volume, the higher you fly, and the more passengers you can take.

There are still people using shaped balls, and the appearance of the airbag is a basketball, a monkey's head, a whale or something.

That hot air balloon will be lifted off first, I'll take you to see it, there are some safety knowledge that needs to be taught to you.

For example, when a hot air balloon lands, the basket may jump and bumble, so you need to learn a safe landing position......"

Han Xuan's eyes followed the direction of Joshua's finger, and there were eight people with huge age differences, some old and some young, who looked like special tourists from a family of several generations, standing by a colorful striped hot air balloon, talking excitedly.

The staff laid the airbag flat, and then put the gondola downside down, and after the OK gesture, someone took several bottle-shaped fuel canisters and installed them in the gondola.

Joshua said: "Hot air balloons are usually fueled with propane or liquefied gas, and a hot air balloon can carry about 20 kilograms of liquid fuel.

The burner is the heart of a hot air balloon and burns compressed gas with 150 times more energy than a typical household gas stove.

Your clothes are cotton, aren't they?"

"yes, they made me wear it when I called, what?"

Han Xuan pulled the red and white plaid shirt on his body and showed him: "100% cotton." ”

"That's good, wear cotton clothes, it won't burn and stick to your body after a fire, there have been accidents like this before. ”

Hearing this, Du Ersil took a few deep breaths and looked around: "Where is there a place to change clothes, I have to take off my underwear." ”

“……”

To make a hot air balloon take off, you need at least four people to work together to help.

They first connected the balloon to the hanging basket that was placed on the side, and used a small blower to blow the wind into the balloon to inflate the balloon little by little.

When fully deployed, the driver began to ignite.

The burner suddenly burst out with a pillar of fire more than two meters long, making a deafening sound.

Heat is constantly poured into the airtight airbag, heating the air inside, making it quickly become massive.

Wait for the balloon to rise perpendicular to the basket and add a few more fires.

The balloon stood in place, and if it hadn't been pulled by the rope, it would have flown away.

The driver turned down the flame and beckoned the tourists to sit in, but the old woman was so frightened that she clutched her chest and tried to back down.

The juniors laughed and picked her up and put her in the hanging basket, and the children laughed excitedly.

After the ground crew untied the rope, the flame of the burner grew larger again.

The hot air balloon gradually takes off from the ground, can rise four or five meters a second, and becomes smaller and smaller......

"Let's go, let's fly too!

These hot air balloons are not tied to ropes, where do they end up?"

Han Xuan asked.

Joshua spread his hands and replied, "We don't know either."

The wind is not strong today, otherwise it would have to rise and fall on the spot.

According to the regulations, only those who have visibility of more than 1.5 kilometers and wind speed of less than six meters per second can fly freely.

It shouldn't fly too far, it's just around the pasture, and if you find a suitable place, you'll land.

A hot air balloon isn't really driven by us, it's driven by the wind.

Since the wind is at different altitudes, has different directions and speeds, it is possible to choose the appropriate altitude according to the direction of the flight.

The size of the flame emitted by the burner controls the rise and fall. ”

After listening to his words, Han Xuan's head was full of black lines.

If he didn't know that there are more than 20,000 hot air balloons in the world, sometimes there can't be an accident a year, he would never dare to sit on it.

"You should have a propeller behind the basket so you can control the direction at will, just like these paragliders in the sky." ”

"You're talking about airships, not hot air balloons......"

Similar to the lift-off process of the hot air balloon just now, the hot air balloon that Han Xuan was about to ride also grew larger as the burner heated up with a pillar of fire and stopped floating on the ground.

Once seated, Joshua asked, "Are you ready?"

I'm taking off.

These gentlemen, you are too tall, please don't stand up at will, and be careful that your head touches the burner. ”

Jason sat down, grabbed the railing with both hands, and muttered, "Don't worry, I won't stand up if you ask me to stand, I always feel like I'm going to fall ...... if I'm not careful" (to be continued). )
