About Us

Pilot Damon Flick fell in love with hot air ballooning when he met his wife, the daughter of a balloon pilot. He began crewing in 1994 and became a pilot in 2002 just after college. Since then, he has logged hundreds of beautiful, safe flights and looks forward to hundreds more. In addition to the commercial balloon rating, Damon also has his private pilot instrument rating for single engine airplanes. Damon is a graduate of RIT and currently works at Liberty Pumps as Purchasing Manager.

Lisa is a Nazareth College undergrad and a PhD from the University of Rochester. She currently works at Monroe Community College as an Professor of Biology.
