Enquire

Larger baskets have internal partitions woven into the walls and floor. The partitions provide greater structural integrity and separation between groups of passengers. The pilot and fuel cylinders occupy a separate compartment from the passengers. To offer comfort and safety the CB3370 & CB3550 baskets have 4 additional passenger compartments. this format is referred to as the 'Double TT' basket.

There are many solid floor options available from the Cameron Balloons range. If you have a specific requirement why not contact sales@cameronballoons.co.uk or your nearest Cameron Dealer with your details.

At a glance

Baskets are traditional wickerwork construction, using a mixture of Willow and Cane. These Cameron Balloons 'TT' and 'Double TT' Partition baskets have a solid floor with Kiln dried Ash or Synthetic (optional) runners bolted to the floor. The structural load is taken by twin, 6mm or 7mm stainless steel wires running through a 32mm dia. stainless steel top frame and to the walls forming a continuous sling from the burner frame through the basket floor.

Longevity and strength are very important to consider when looking for the perfect hot-air balloon basket.

We pride ourselves with the fact that many of our baskets are still airworthy today, after so many decades flying professionally or for pleasure.

The top of the basket is padded and trimmed with the highest quality leather or suede. The bottom edge is traditionally covered with rawhide which protects the basket from damage during landing and transportation. For those in very harsh environments, we offer a leather base at a supplementry price.
