South Texas Balloon Launch Team
The Flight of BLT-27
August 20, 2011
Wharton Airport
BLT-27 Passing through 5000 ft!

On August 20, 2011 BLT-27 was launched into the Bright (and very HOT!) South Texas sky. Months of projects had turned into payloads functional payloads that were headed to the edge of space. These are a few of the no doubt hundreds of pictures taken at the site on this day. Please take a look and enjoy the flight from my view, and as always if you have any you would like to post here please let me know and be sure to send a write up along and I’ll do my bet to post them for you.
