Falcon124 | July 8, 2009 | 11:50 pm- Another cold morning in the Yarra Valley – -3 degrees – possibly colder than yesterday – could be another great flight (fog permitting :) #
- first light starting to show over the hills, light mist low in the valley, sub-zero temps, clear skies, lots of stars – beautiful :) #
- we just launched our balloon here in the yarra valley and saw one of the city balloons way in the distance as we crested a ridge #
- all finished – another great day to fly a balloon in the yarra valley – looking a bit windy for tomorrow tho :( #

Falcon124 | July 7, 2009 | 11:50 pm- Crewing in Yarra Valley again tomorrow morning – chance of mist & fog – could be a wonderful flight :) #
- in the valley where it’s been -4 degrees, some mist and patches of fog – we launched in the clear and they’ll be having a great flight :) #
- ice covering some puddles, frost everywhere, sun low, mist & fog patches and a hot air balloon flying over the valley – beautiful! :) #
- all done – another beautiful flight on a wonderful, cold yarra valley morning :) #

Falcon124 | July 6, 2009 | 11:50 pm- RyanAir now considering “stool” seating for some pax – and we though pay toilets were bad? http://tinyurl.com/klg5bo #
- New slogan for RyanAir: Pushing the limits of passenger masochism #
- Wonder how long until RyanAir introduce “Beg for your ticket” – free flight to the person most willing to degrade themselves to get onboard #
- Just got back from flying an RC aircraft with my son in the park – I now have a stack of wings to repair :) #

Falcon124 | July 5, 2009 | 11:50 pm- Just posted a new entry in the 737 sim’s blog about the hot new scenery pack for Hong Kong (http://bit.ly/cYFdJ) #
- Half the fun of that new post was hot dogging a 737 around Kowloon Bay to get the photos in the sim :) so much fun :) http://bit.ly/cYFdJ #
- chatting with @stevevisscher and geting ready to record the OzDesk segment for @airplanegeeks #
- Finished recording the Australia Desk segment with @stevevisscher for the next @airplanegeeks podcast – good luck editiing it, Steve :) #
- I’m pretty tired after a full weekend so I think the blooper reel for this week could be longer than the actual news desk segment :) #
- Anyhow, time for bed – up in 5 hours to go crew hot air balloons in the Yarra Valley :) #
- launched the balloon over the yarra valley – few patches of drizzle about the place #
- balloon is flying in the clear – the drizzle was where we were waiting – lucky us :) #
- another great flight completed – pax & pilot enjoying breakfast while we get to go refill & clean up for tomorrow :) #
- Just finished an awesome phone interview with Steve Clarke from Flight Experience HQ in NZ – great discussion about the history of their sim #
