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.

The largest models built to date to the AM7

Richard Bowater 5 balloons of varying designs were built over 2
years culminating in the AM7 style envelopes.
