I believe hot air as well as gas balloons do not require a medical.
Hot air ballooning is a heck of a lot of fun. My bro. was a
competition hot air pilot & I've been up dozens of times and had
several lessons. Easy, fun, different, peaceful (especially the helium
balloons) and relatively inexpensive (well, helium ballooning is VERY
expensive) once equipment is purchased.
