I want to know about hot air balloons! For those who say, we are holding a hot air balloon seminar "CHALLENGE" irregularly. Since the knowledge of the pilot license acquisition level is easily explained, even beginners can participate.
Vision
It's strange, and even if the times change, people still have dreams and hopes in the sky.
If a hot air balloon soars into the sky with a fluffy floating feeling, it will instantly take you to a special extraordinary place away from everyday life, it will be beautiful just by looking at it, and it will impress you no matter how many times you ride it. I will.
But that's not the only attraction.
Sports competitions and adventures are also held in hot air balloons, like competing for how fast and long you can run in athletics, and climbing undeveloped or high mountains in mountaineering.
I want to see a far higher sky that no one has ever seen ...
I want to fly in a place that no one has ever flown ...
I want to go to a place that cannot be reached by land route ...
While there are various fields in hot air balloons, we are aiming to win the "world's best" hot air balloon as a sports competition and to popularize hot air balloons.
Realization of the dream "Hot air ballooning world's best"
I am working hard in training in a flying environment all over the world.
In addition, through this activity, we will embody "the importance of having a dream" and "the importance of striving toward a dream."
Popularization of hot air balloons
We will contribute to raising awareness of hot air balloons by actively disseminating the world of hot air balloons that we have seen and experienced and holding hot air balloon seminars.
Training hot air balloon pilots who will lead the next generation
We will hold hot air balloon seminars to provide a place for correct knowledge education, and follow up so that young people who are interested in hot air balloons do not lose their opportunities due to various conditions.
As a lover of sports to enjoy in the natural environment and a lover of hot air balloons flying in delicate climatic conditions, the rapid climate change these days is a serious problem.
We support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) advocated by the United Nations and declare that we will fulfill our social responsibilities by linking our activities with our efforts toward the SDGs.
