We have also taken part as an expert on many TV programmes including The Generation Game, The West Tonight and have been seen on numerous TV channels, including BBC, ITV, HTV, Sky, Disney, ABC 1, The History Channel and Discovery.  Our pilots have been guests and carried out many interviews for several radio programmes and have featured in several national newspaper articles.  Below are just a few examples.

 

Ian Martin recently featured in a documentary filmed for Australian network ABC1 with foreign correspondent Zoe Daniels.  Ian was working in Myanmar, (Burma) at the time and the 30 minute documentary about Myanmar shows the balloon flying over the temples and pagodas of Bagan.

The balloon bit comes in two pieces at the beginning and again halfway through the documentary, which itself is very enlightening about the country and its changes politically and for the future.

The link below will take you to the archive of ABC1 and the documentary and transcript, where you can watch the video.

Here is an audio put together by Heart FM during the 2012 Bristol International Balloon Fiesta, where people who attended the night glow event expressed their excitement at seeing the balloons flying and the impression they got from the night glow that we at Flying Enterprises choreographed and directed.  The strength of excitement, patriotism, emotion and sheer joy is a pleasure to listen to.  This reminds us how great hot air ballooning is and why those businesses who get involved in an advertising campaign involving balloons really do get great value for money.
