Albuquerque Balloon Festival

October 26, 2009

airstream balloon rally 2009If you missed the 2009 Albuquerque Balloon Festival earlier this month, then check out the comments and great pictures at Airforums.

It looks like everyone had a great time and there were some spectacular shaped balloons, including bees, chipmunks, a cow, a pig, and even an Airstream.

The pictures and comments about this rally have everyone talking about next year’s event — which has already been scheduled for October 1 through 5, 2010, so mark your calendars!

    Am going to purchase my 1st airstream, a 2006 safari. Is it worth buying an extended warranty and where is the best source to get one

    I've just noticed several dents in one side of my roof on a 59 overlander. The trailer is not parked near any trees. Could it be a temperature fluxuation on the roof panels? The cold side with snow still on it shows no damage. The only side that shows any dents is directly in the sun. Has anyone ever heard of this before ? Thanks, any comments will be helpful.

    WE HAD OUR 1991 AIRSTREAM MOTORHOME REFINISHED (GEL COATED) BY AIRSTREAM THREE YEARS AGO AND THE TOP HAS SEVERAL AREAS THAT ARE PEELED OFF. IT WOULD COST ANOTHER $7K TO STRIP AND REFINISH AGAIN AND GUARANTEED FOR ONLY TWO YEARS!!. CAN ANYONE RECOMMEND ANOTHER WAY THAT WE CAN GELCOAT THOSE AREAS OURSELVES AND IT WOULD MATCH.

    I SEE CAMPING WORLD OF COUNCIL BLUFFS, IOWA IS NOW THE AIRSTREAM DEALER FOR THE REGION. THIS IS A GOOD THING SINCE I LIVE IN OMAHA, NEBRASKA. RIGHT ACROSS THE RIVER. MAYBE NOW I CAN GET SERVICE AND PARTS WITH A SMILE. INSTEAD OF A DEALERSHIP WITH A MUD LOT. MAKES ME HAPPY.

    Just purchased a 19" LCD TV formy 2006 Bambi. The problem is finding a mounting apparatus that will allow the TV to be extended out to be viewed and then retracted and secured while traveling. Any suggestions on where such a gadget might be located would be greatly appreciated.

    Am looking at a 1968 Airstream International that is for sale in my area, but knowing little about how to determine the relative health of the trailer (water systems, hvac, brakes/suspension/electrical, etc), I am eager to find an expert that can help me with a pre-purchase inspection. For the N.Ga/Western NC/Eastern TN area, please advise of any inspectors that can help me.
    many thanks!
