Comments What a breathtaking adventure! Our balloon ride was a 50th birthday gift for my husband. Gary and Julie were fun and very knowledgeable hosts. Thanks for helping us to chip away at that list of "Things to Do Before We Die"! A balloon ride should be on everyone's list!

Comments Saturday morning June 17, 2006 was a real ADVENTURE! Even though I have great faith in Gary's ability as a pilot, Mother Nature was being SO quirky, there were anxious moments when it looked like we were headed for the Ottaquechee River or TREES! Of course, he brought us down gently into a field, but it was fun being just a LITTLE nervous! :o) And it was great watching Starship's newer twin following behind us -- many wonderful photo ops!

Comments Thanks for a wonderful adventure! You have an awesome crew, so thoughtful and friendly. This was a surprise gift for my husband's birthday-however I wasn't exactly thrilled about taking the ride with him. It turned out to be one of the most enjoyable experiences, so peaceful and beautiful. My husband was absolutely beaming throughout the ride! He plays the video over and over and over for any poor unsuspecting soul that visits us!

Comments I have a tremendous fear of heights but was asked by my best friend to join him for a balloon ride, his birthday present from Dad. I could not refuse him....So we lifted off and I experienced one of the greatest times of my life, top 3 all-times for sure...right up there with birth of child and winning the lottery..The Brother's Lovell do a great job and I thank them for helping me face my fears and putting me at ease...(I apologize for sobbing "Mommy" when we reached 2,000') With gratitude, Chris

Comments Aug.1(Sunday eve)flight from Quichee Green, Vt. was great pleasure for wife Ruth and myself. From panoramic view of countryside, to pilot Gary's informative (and often humorous)commentary, nothings beats floating like a cloud in good company. A hummingbird hovered 4 ft. from me in curiousity, but no greater curiousity(and delight)than the children whose parents big field provided soft touchdown. Laughs and exchange of wine bottles renewed aquaintances. Find an excuse to take this trip! Steve

Comments We went balloon chasing the 2nd year here and my children found it exciting. They had never see a hot air balloon and I hadn't seen that many all at once before. Being from Florida they're few and far between. The kids even got to help let the air out of several and roll them up into the basket. It's nice to see on such a pretty day. Keep flying and hopefully one day we can catch a ride. Patty Hein

Comments Dear Gary, On top of my other on-site comments about what a wondrously beautiful trip we -- the West Springfield (Mass.) H.S. Class of '60 -- had, and what a rough life you pilots have, I want to add one more: You couldn't have kissed the ground any softer than you did with that landing! Thanks again!

Comments We had our flight with Ken on October 18, 2003. It was AWESOME! The morning was chilly but bright and quite a bit of the foliage managed to hang on through the wind/rain storm we had had three days earlier. Ken is an excellent pilot, and made one heck of a landing, going straight between two trees and into a field. Great Job Ken! My only complaint: the wind picked up some and we had to make that landing, so the flight wasn't nearly long enough. We all could have stayed up there for hours we enjoyed it so much. We can't wait to do it again, and we would DEFINITELY recommend it to anyone!

Comments For anyone thinking about flying in a bolloon, Gary Lovell and Bolloons Over New England is the group to go with. Today we took off through a thin early morning fog to emerge into a bright blue sky with breath taking views of green mountains poking through a blanket of clouds. Gary flew us over wetlands, "tickled" tree-tops in forested uplands, and high over mountain ridges with spectacular views of vallies fragmented by fields and pastures. I was very impressed with Gary's piloting skills as he guided us over a treeline and into a river channel where we flated within inches of the water's surface. Gary then worked with the air current as it turned the balloon 180 degrees up river and above treeline for a spectacular view of Queeche Gorge. I'm sure it made for fantasic photos for the crowd gathered on the bridge in the distance. In addition, Gary's knowledge of the area and respect for land owners is admirable. I look forward to flying with Gary again.

Comments I've been all over the country on balloon flights but have never experienced such a beautiful one as yours. I am looking towards the fall season for another flight. Thanks Gary and I believe my Stephen P. has also had one. Bob D.
