🎈 Meet One of Our Pilots Valerie Favicchio flying High Def Commercial Pilot📍 Ft. Collins, CO6th year with us90,000 ft³Cameron 🎈 The Pilot When a neighbor invited Valerie to "go crew for a balloon in the morning," she thought, "why not," and so it began. Every weekend for the next two and a half years, she crewed for a man who ran a ride business and trained hot air balloon pilots. Though she rode along on some flights, it wasn't until she had the opportunity to take control of the burners that she became hooked. For the next ten months she trained and received her commercial pilot certificate. Shortly after that, she bought her first balloon. Valerie has flown all over the Western US and now loves to fly with her 23-year-old daughter who is also a pilot! ☁ The Balloon A yellow balloon surrounded with primary colors around the equator and on the top.
