Flights over Dartmoor

19/05/2011. We made our first flight this year from our Burrator Resevoir launch site. The resevoir is located near to Yelverton and is surrounded by mixed woodland which sharply contrasts with the open moor and rugged Dartmoor tors.
Taking off at at 19:45 the flight path took us over Sheepstor, Ditsworthy Warren House, Shell Top and the village of Cornwood. We then flew over Harford and Western Beacon before landing near to California Cross at 20:55. Ballooning does not get much better than this!
