No Reg - The Orange County Great Park Balloon was installed here in April-2007. Built by Aerophile of France, similar tethered balloons fly over Paris, Berlin, Dubai, Hong Kong, San Diego, etc. This site is now the Orange County Great Park - a 1,347 acre public space on the site of the former El Toro Marine Corps Air Station in Orange County, California. |

- Tethered helium-filled balloon at the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park in Escondido, CA. Manufactured by Aerophile in France, these balloons also fly over Paris, Berlin, Dubai, Hong Kong, Orange, etc. Unfortunately the US-operated balloons do not carry a registration although they are fully certified as aircraft and those operated in the rest of the world do carry registrations. |

F-GYOU Stationary balloon for panoramic views at the Ibn Battuta Mall in Jebel Ali near Dubai. The mall has an eclectic mix of styles, you can see the Egyptian Court and the metal triangles to the left resemble the ones in front of the Louvre. The registration hints that it's owned by Géant hypermarkets. |

D-ORKA (cn 6016) Still carrying her beach-ball colours, albeit rather faded, and clearly showing where the "sat1" logos were removed. This was the final season of operation for this Aerophile tethered balloon at this location, adjacent to Potsdamerplatz. Notice the Reichstag (German Parliament) bulding in the distance, behind the gondola. |

D-ORKA (cn 6016) Proudly displaying brand-new artwork for the 2006 season and a new location for the Berlin Aerophile. Formerly operated in beach-ball colours, at a location near the Potsdamerplatz. This is the same balloon envelope - now appropriately painted as a globe for the 'Die Welt' newspaper. This location is adjacent to the Berlin Wall, close to 'Checkpoint Charlie' (Zimmerstrasse & Wilhelmstrasse). |

F-GXLS (cn 10) Espace Gaucheret near Brussels Nord railway station is the home to the superb Belgacom Aerophile tethered helium balloon. I finally managed to capture exactly the night shot I wanted, after a year of planning. Notice the blue glow in the background of the Belgacom headquarters. |

G-CCYF (cn 006) Moody clouds look ghostly in this five-minute exposure of the wonderful tethered helium balloon in Bristol's Castle Park. Sponsored by the local radio station, Bristol's GWR 96.3 FM. Rather curiously the former sponsor and reg cannot be identified during daylight, but can be seen clearly in this night shot - quite odd! |

F-GXLS (cn 10) Belgacom's tethered helium balloon located in Espace Gaucheret near Brussels Nord railway station. Rather blustery conditions today meant she remained tied down, using an impressive array of cables! |

G-CCYF (cn 006) Britsol's Aerophile is now sponsored by the local radio station, GWR FM. Its previous home was Paris where she was sponsored by Eutelsat (as F-GPRS). The artwork still depicts Eutelst's global coverage, this side of the balloon showing the Taj Mahal, pyramids, etc. Notice how the deep blue colour is starting to fade in the beautiful southern sun. |

F-GXLS (cn 10) The fantastic belgacom tethered balloon in flight above Brussels, providing outstanding views of the city for just 10 euros per ride. This balloon is easily visible from Brussels National Airport (BRU), over 10km away. |
