This year’s balloon launch (weather permitting) is scheduled for 6 a.m. on Saturday, July 30 at ultralight runway (http://www.eaa.org/eaa/place/-ultralight%20runway?id=FC5BD9D634D34FA3A7A65CA156B 5F2F6).

Here are some ultralight webcam (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mjylid2I91M) - screen shots (http://eaaforums.org/showthread.php?3999-Streaming-Media-Cameras-2013-Official-Thread&p=33669&viewfull=1#post33669) from the AV 13. (check time stamp on bottom of screenshot)
I think they also just light them up (no launch) at show center after the afternoon airshow at dusk.
Don't know what days though.
