WHY BUY AEROMAGIC
That’s a great
question. What makes AeroMagic the company for you first or next special
shape? Really, there are lots of competent companies out there. So what
makes AeroMagic the best?
A long, long time
ago, Marcos learned the dynamic of the hot air balloon building large
toy versions from paper. Everything was completely made of paper. The
loading of those balloons was calculated out. Marcos noticed that he was
able to work extreme loading on these toy paper balloons the way he was
designing them. He realized that if he could perform such high loading
with just paper, he could certainly do much better with nylon building
giant hot air balloons.
AeroMagic prides
itself on engineering. So much so, Marcos Bonimcontro, co-founder and
physics instructor wrote his own design program specially for the
dynamics exclusive to the unusual shaped hot air envelopes. The common
factor between round balloons and Special Shape balloons is that the
major weight loading for the balloon is underneath, where the basket is
connected. Other than that, anything can change.
Look inside a
Special Shape balloon. Check out the pictures on this site that show the
inner structures. There are none in a round balloon. But in a Special
Shape, all those curtains and cords are displacing stresses and loads to
other sections of the envelope. These diversions pull sides in, spread
connections and loads evenly across several panels or redirect air to
appendages, inflating tentacles, beaks, wings, noses or perhaps even
birds. Get these connections wrong and the balloon could stand in a
crooked or offset manner. Appendages may inflate and deflate during and
after burns. Every single connection is critical and strategic.
AeroMagic will
even custom color fabrics. When ING required a certain color to match
the Orange Ball logo, AeroMagic was able to help. Working from PMS
colors and samples, they matched the color that was desired. The end
result was a giant corporate logo. How cool is that?
AeroMagic prides
itself on delivery times. Complete the order of your balloon. Get your
balloon. On time. Not two, three, four, five months later like some of
the other horror stories we’ve all heard. You project gets built,
tested, and sent to the airport for delivery. When we say it will leave
the factory, it leaves the factory, or before. Do we sound confident? We
are.

US Sales Representative
Barry "D" DiLibero has
been flying hot air balloons since 1991. Located in
Southeastern Pennsylvania,
he flies passengers and friends in a round balloon. On the road during
the Summer, he and his wife Teri attend balloon events with the Special
Shape US Flag Balloon, "America One". In 2003, they added a new
balloon built to honor 100 years of Powered Flight. Space Shuttle
"Patriot". At over 178 feet, it is the tallest US Registered Balloon in
the world. In 2006, a third balloon was added, a flying red, white and
blue lighthouse, appropriately named “Flighthouse”. For 2007, they will
all be flying around the country together.
