Hi George,
I didn't work at VSJAX-but I flew the Victoria Station Hot Air Ballon over the top of the Independant Life Building(tallest Bldg. in Fla.).,during the St.John's River Festival in May of '77.-maybe You were there for the event wixh drew app 300,000 people.
The Mayor of Jacksonville-Hans Tansler,sent me a beautiful letter after the event and said that we had stolen the show,by ascending up,and crossing over the top of the building.
As payment for the exhibition,My chase crew and I were bought dinner at VSJAX .-plus gas money to drive up from VSFLL.-funny how the spirit of VS personell was stronger than the sense to get paid properly.
