  1. hot-air balloon

    A hot-air balloon is a type of aircraft that typically consists of a bag or "envelope" filled with heated air, and a suspended gondola or basket below, which holds passengers or cargo. The heated air within the balloon makes it float or rise as it's lighter than the cool air outside. Controls in the balloon allow for adjustments to altitude by adjusting the temperature of the internal air. The direction of flight depends largely on the wind conditions.
