Re: Balloons

Just a thought--the refs might not have a problem, but I rather suspect that the inspectors would give you a tough time about the pressurized helium in the balloons. Now you've got a pneumatic system not filled by the compressor...

Not that teams haven't joked about filling frames with helium before, you understand, but it's a joke.
