Adventure of the Heart is one man's dream of advancing the state-of-the-art of hot air ballooning.  Adventure of the Heart is a custom-fabricated, personal balloon designed by Rich Jaworski of Blair, Nebraska for this long-duration flight.

Rich's Feb. 4-5, 2007 flight of 23 hours 11 minutes shattered his old record of 13 hours 12 minutes, and set two new World Duration Records, bettering both the category AX-4 and AX-5 marks.

On Jan. 19-20, 2008, Rich set an AX-4 distance record of 417.7 km (259.5 miles).

The Adventure continues!  "Join us on the Journey!"
