Riding the Jetstream by John Christopher

Riding the Jetstream by John Christopher

Ballooning can be both all-absorbing relaxation and high-tech sport. John Christopher - a professional balloon pilot - offers an insider's view of the obsessive world of ballooning, taking the reader into the balloons themselves and the minds of the people who ride them.

John Christopher is a professional balloon pilot, a journalist and the editor of Aerostat, the international ballooning journal. In January 1996 he drove from the UK to Morocco with supplies for Richard Branson's Virgin Global Challenger team, and three years later he was present at the lift-off of the Breitling Orbiter 3. He lives in Cumbria.
