This week's Image of the Week (featured on page 3 of Flight International), is taken by AirSpace user apgphoto. His photo depicts a Cameron Hopper one man balloon.

He writes of his photo:

The balloon is flown by a good friend of mine and is a Cameron Hopper which is a one man balloon, just strap the cylinder to your back (so to speak) and off you go. It was previously flown for Proctor and Gamble to advertise their Fairy Liquid brand of washing up
liquid, the baby being their logo. The picture was shot last weekend [10-11 April] on a local flight from our base in Wales just before I flew out more conventional balloon.
