We are happy our own Dan Pregnar will be helping make balloonists safer at our safety seminar!

Welcome to our next speaker, Dan Pregnar! Dan's topic is Stump Dan with the Fan. Here's what he tells us about this:

Don’t allow your fan to take advantage of you. Your inflator fan is one the most important, but yet dangerous pieces of equipment. Discuss with Dan his thoughts on fan safety, placement and preventative maintenance. Spending just a little time maintaining and cleaning your fan might just prevent injury, break down or a catastrophic failure. Bring all of your fan questions and see if you can stump Dan!

Happy FAVIA Day! On this day in 1793, 231 years ago, the first air voyage in America launched from the Walnut Street, Philadelphia prison yard. Jean Pierre Blanchard took off at about 10 am and flew about an hour, landing 15 miles away in Deptford, NJ.
