2 hot air balloons make an emergency landing on a NL highway

Post by Derice »

Dutch article:
http://www.nu.nl/binnenland/2305536/luc ... g-a28.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Summary:
2 hot air balloons had to make an emergency landing on highway A28.
(Somewhere around this location: http://maps.google.nl/maps?f=q&source=s ... d&t=h&z=13" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

One of them landed on the emergency lane, the other in between the two lanes of traffic.
Reasons are as of yet unknown. Highway is closed until the balloons can be removed.

Anyone for the registrations of these balloons?

One of them is PH-DZB, "DTZ Zadelhoff"

There was no emergency, they just had to land on an unusual place due to lack of wind...
