Lee
Teitsworth - Pilot
Lee really had little choice.
If you are a Teitsworth, you'll end up being a balloonist
in one way or another. In addition to many years
as a reliable and experienced crew member, Lee recently
obtained his Commercial Pilot Certificate and flies for Liberty Balloon Co. often. He also recently obtained a wife, which makes him that much more trustworthy and reliable. |

been a family affair for the Teitsworths. But it's
rare to see them all gathered around one basket! |
