2010 Part 1 Race Build Up Gordon Bennett Gas Balloon Race GB2010 UK

The Gordon Bennett endurance race is one of the most prestigious aeronautical races in the world. In 2008 David Hempleman-Adams and Jon Mason won the race and thus the hosting and launch of the race in 2010 was from Great Britain. Our film of the event is in 5 parts and gives you a look behind the scenes with the highs and lows of the GB3 team of David Hempleman-Adams and Simon Carey as we follow their journey across Europe in their balloon Lady Luck. Here we have the preparation and build up - it is a count down to launch day. Don't forget to follow on to part 2. We have to thank the BBC for supplying some footage, ITN for using some of our footage in their tv news programmes and Clive Bailey and Don Cameron for supporting the film.
