Publication of CAP1739

Following consultation and further development during Q1 2026, CAP1739 Safety Guidance for Balloon Events and Competitions has now been published. We have provided feedback on the consultation on our dedicated consultation webpage.

The publication of this document does not introduce new legal requirements and forms non statutory safety guidance.

The CAP includes information on Balloon Events including Ballooning as part of a Flying Display and Competition Balloon Flying.
