HOT AIR BALLOON PLT ENTERED CLASS D AIRSPACE WITHOUT CLRNC.

Narrative

I LAUNCHED AT XA25 FROM ZZZ; US. I FLEW ABOUT 45 MINS AND WAS LOOKING FOR A LNDG SITE. ABOUT 45 MINS LATER; I FINALLY HAD A LNDG SITE. I WAS MAKING AN APCH WHEN ENCOUNTERED FALSE LIFT. REALIZING THE FALSE LIFT; HEATED THE BALLOON BUT THE ENVELOPE BRUSHED AGAINST SOME TREES. THE TREE BRANCHES TORE SOME SMALL HOLES IN THE LOWER SECTION OF THE ENVELOPE. BECAUSE I WAS HEATING THE BALLOON; IT STARTED TO ASCEND AND I FLEW PAST THE LNDG SITE. I CONTINUED TO LOOK FOR LNDG SITES AND STAYED LOW SO I COULD LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THERE WERE NO LNDG SITES. I KNEW I WAS APCHING THE ZZZ; US; CLASS D AIRSPACE WHICH IS 20 STATUE MILES FROM LAUNCH SITE. I DID NOT HAVE AN ACFT RADIO ON BOARD BECAUSE I HAD NO INTENTIONS OF FLYING THIS DISTANCE OR FOR 1 HR AND 45 MINS. I DID NOT APCH ANY SAFE LNDG SITES AND FLEW INTO THE CLASS D AIRSPACE WITHOUT CONTACTING THE TWR. I STAYED LOW SO I COULD LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE IF I CAME UPON A LNDG SITE BECAUSE OF THE DAMAGE TO THE ENVELOPE. I WAS ONE MILE S OF RWY WITH A HEADING OF 8 DEGS. I LAND SAFELY ABOUT 1 MILE TO THE E OF THE RWY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES TO THE CREW. IN THE FUTURE; I WILL CONTACT THE CTL TWR BEFORE ENTERING CLASS D AIRSPACE. TOTAL FLT TIME WAS 2 HRS AND 15 MINS.
