 AM 7

 

Available in any volume between 20m3 and 90m3 as standard production items, the AM7 range comes in a wide variety of colours and styles, just drop me an e-mail and we can discuss your preferences.

Built from 20 gores, these model balloons are cut into a sequence of component panels or can be purchased as a single gore sized panel. I favour the multi cut version because it offers a wider variety of colour schemes and is designed for its ease of manufacture. The AM7 can be purchased as a kit or, via our skilled sewing team, as an assembled and  ready to fly balloon. The choice is yours.

 

  AM 7-70

The largest models built to date to the AM7 design these were also the first, having formed a partnership with Richard Bowater 5 balloons of varying designs were built over 2 years culminating in the AM7 style envelopes.

The AM7-70's are seen here on their first public outings Llangollen 2007 model balloon festival showing AMBalloons Sagittarius (black) and Richard Bowater's `Toyah'(red)

AM 7-20 - Hopper

This envelope is ideal both for the experienced hopper model enthusiast and the complete novice, designed in partnership with my first American customer to carry his ultra light weight bottom end - the balloon weighed in at just 2.7kg once assembled and ready to ship
