The Exchange
By hotairballoonist in Video Tutorials
The Exchange is an online bulletin board for balloonist's in any specific area.
Lets say you fly in the St Louis area. You know there are several other pilots who fly in that area. Have them all get a general membership to the site then have each one select the "Follow" feature on the four forums in your Exchange.
Remember a General Membership is only $20/year. Less than a cup of coffee A MONTH!
Then if you need crew you start a topic. If you find a new Launch and landing spot you start a topic. If you need help you start a topic. If you find an unhappy landowner you start a topic. If you are a ground crew and want to crew more you start a topic. If you have a party for balloonist's you start a topic. If you need help fixing equipment you start a topic. Anything you want everyone in your area to know you start a topic. The HAB system will send an email to every one who follows your exchange. Its an online bulletin board for you and your fellow ballooner's in your area.
If there is not an exchange for your flying area and you would like one just send us a note and we will make one for you! Info@HotAirBalloonist.com
