Hot air balloons are an aircraft consisting of the balloon itself, which can be painted in different colors and patterns, and a basket tied to it. As a rule, they are used for demonstration and sports flights. For the first time, this type of air transport was manufactured in 1783 by the Montgolfier brothers. The balloons themselves are filled with hot air using a propane burner. The air inside the balloon becomes lighter than air around it, as a result of which the balloon rising up. And for going down, there is a special cord, pulling on which part of the hot air from the balloon is released, and the balloon lowers the height. However, the hot air balloon has no engine or steering wheel, which makes them practically uncontrollable.
