ALTRAD hot-air balloon supporting the Audace Handi Évasion association

✨ From May 1st to 4th, 2025 (under the watchful eye of Saint Michael, patron saint of aeronauts) the skies above Mont Saint-Michel Bay hosted a remarkable challenge. ABA, a partner of the Altrad Group, took part in an unprecedented event: the very first group crossing of the bay by air, featuring 11 airships (8 hot-air balloons and 3 class 5 ULM airships), with both disabled ♿ and able-bodied pilots and passengers on board.

🖤 The Altrad balloon was one of them, piloted by Mercedes Taravillo, a member of the ABA association (she also designed the ALTRAD fabric displayed on the majestic black balloon).

💪🌍 Beyond the human and technical achievement, this powerful moment helped break down barriers and remind us all that the sky is open to everyone.
