Sigh...there's a reason I'm asking which I really can't get into at the moment, but...

...Does anyone know if the Montgolfier Brother's balloon is available anywhere for download?  Or would anyone be willing to build one?

Indeed.  I remember seeing standard hot air balloons for 98, but that's about the last time I saw anything close.  lol

Complete with dog sheep and chickin I assume.

I believe the chicken was actually the first casualty of air travel when the sheep kicked it. Grin

I didn't see one, but thanks for the link anyway.  I love his stuff.  lol

The balloon I'm looking for looks like this:

We've all seen it, it's just a matter of finding one for the sim.

I may just have to give up giving up and learn how to build.  I've been trying for a year and a half with absolutely no luck.  lol

Thanks all.
