Purpose-built for passenger operations, the A-Type offers a wide range of envelopes that will lift from 5 to 18+ persons – from the sport-sized 105 up to the industry’s greatest workhorse, the A-315, with 6,300 pounds of gross lift.
Twenty slightly bulbous gores, each with numerous horizontal panels, provide tremendous strength without compromising artwork potential. And like all Camerons, the A-Series boasts a large “Loaded” mouth™ and Nomex PressureScoop™, which together make even the windiest inflations easy. This is especially important for balloons that have to work hard for a living.
