What way can a hot air balloon travel?
A hot air balloon pilot has control over the vertical axis of flight only. By heating the air in the balloon, the pilot can control the vertical flightpath in an upwarddirection. By releasing hot air or by letting the air cool down, the pilot can affect the vertical axis of flight in a downward direction. Any other directional control (the horizontal flight path) is controlled by the wind. the only control the pilot has in the horizontal flight path is by taking the balloon up or down into the wind which flows in the direction the pilot wants to travel.
