[5] This journey took place 1980, lasting 11 months, with 40 balloon flights starting from Zanzibar, going to Tanzania, Ruanda and part of Zaire to finalize in Kisangani, current Democratic Republic of the Congo.

After that, they started to design an ultralight aircraft and created the company Ultramagic SA, together with Carles Lladó, brother of Josep Maria.

[7] In year 2009, Ultramagic made the first official flight of the "Ecomagic", an eco-friendly hot air balloon, with a reduced consumption, developed together with the School of Aeronautic Engineering of Technische Universität Berlin.

The textile fabric used by this balloon has a double layer to better isolate the hot air, thus reducing consumption and allowing longer flights.
