The Great Australian Balloon Long Jump

Based on the British and American Long Jump events, The Great Australian Balloon Long Jump is an annual nationwide ballooning competition. Balloonists from all over Australia compete to see who can fly the furthest using only 150 litres of propane. Flights take place anywhere in Australia, allowing each competitor to choose their own time and place to fly. 

To allow for extended flights, the competition this year is running from the beginning of June until the end of September, during the Australian Winter. Flights of 4-5 hours covering over 100 km are possible.
