Hehe no, not me but one of the big boys (rides operators) -- you can tell by the relative size of the basket (if the big banner on the side doesn't give it away. ) The landing approach for a balloon is not too different to a small plane -- its just much slower in a balloon So the balloon is low for landing a lot longer than fixed-wing.

And at the opposite end of the scale, here is RTFM, in a hopper
