Hot air balloon or paraglider?

Question

Wich one would you rather use?

Answer 1

Hot Air Balloon.  I think you have a little more control over what you can do.  I definitely wouldn't tie myself up to a bunch of helium filled balloons and see how far I could fly, like that preacher did for charity.  He is lost now....lol...What was he thinking?

Answer 2

Hot air balloon.

In my younger years I would have done either; but the protection of wicker just seems more comforting. My legs are important.

(Cheated on this, I'm certified FAA hot-air balloon pilot, but would love to add a FAA "real" glider rating added. Flying is just plain cool.)

Answer 3

Use for what? Do you want to glide or float?
