We have been around balloons for many years. It started first with
flying and the fun that goes with it. Our group has changed quite a
few friends in the meantime, but the core has remained the same over
the years. Balloons have become inextricably linked to us. Our endless
enthusiasm for ballooning and living in this great community has
motivated us to want to give a little of that enthusiasm back to you.
And, as it happens with us Czechs, over a beer the idea of setting up
a service organization to maintain and service hot air balloons was
born. "Simply a service for the XXII century, such that they will
consider building a freight elevator to us in Australia through the
Earth's core" said Jirka with exaggeration. We leaned in,
took the necessary theoretical and practical training, gathered
inspiration from the best European service organisations and set about
building a workshop. At the end of 2023, we completed the workshop and
received the patronage of one of the largest balloon manufacturers in
the world, the Kubíček Balloons factory. They probably don't know
about us in Australia yet, but we're in the heart of Europe,
right next to the motorway, so we're a short drive from
everywhere. Safety, reliability and enthusiasm, that's us! Come
and check it out! We look forward to seeing you! Service team

If we don't pick it up right away, we're sure to have
sewing machines or burners humming in our ears. But we'll be
sure to call you back as soon as we can.
Jirka, besides being a hitchhiker, is also a shifter. He's always moving us forward. He makes sure everything is running as it should and he flies, teaches and trains new pilots.
He's been with us so long that no one remembers exactly when. He started out driving escorts for us, gradually repairing cars and trolleys until he started to take an interest in maintaining all the components of the balloons. Jirka is a jack of all trades, he fixes, adjusts and until he is sure everything is in order, he doesn't let it go. He's also a very skilled seamstress.
He just found us and fit right in with us. He's an enthusiast for everything that flies and after years he decided to do his balloon papers. At the moment he is in training. He has his own bottles and torches, he is not into sewing yet, but you never know. According to him everything has to have a clear procedure and order, so checklists are his passion. He just checks that everything is in place and done according to the correct procedure!
He is with us for a short time, but we believe he will last forever. The torches and the bottles are a challenge he has taken up with a healthy enthusiasm and he is even trying to pedal the sewing machine. This is our future!
