Scotland - Two German hot air balloonists who landed in Scotland after being rescued by the RAF today spoke of their ordeal.
Heinrich Brachtendorf, 67, and Peter Wittmann, 32, from Marle, Germany, are recovering in a Carnoustie hotel after they were caught in strong winds and ended up being blown across the North Sea.
The two friends had been taking part in a competition in Marle to see which ballooning team could stay in the air for the longest time. But when they realised they had travelled as far as the English coast, they put out a distress call and the RAF swung into action.
