At about 7.30pm this evening three Hot Air Balloons were seen drifting south of Tadley,Hants and looked like they were heading towards Reading,the first one was all green with a large BUTLERS on two sides and a white reg,the second was yellow and black stripes with the reg in black on one of the yellow stripes,no other markings were on the balloon and the third one was one of the Kewtech ones,anybody else see these and able to put reggies against all three?

Cheers John,much appreciated.

As John said
G-SAWS Butlers - only a month or so old
G-OKEW ? Kewtech. - if it was a racer?
And yellow, black stripes- black reg on the yellow - as a guess, could it be G-TKNO? (Stripes actually dark blue but could easily be mistaken for black from distance!)

Hi zz,the Kewtech was indeed the racer and G-TKNO certainly fits the bill.

Many thanks for your input.
