September 18th Launch was created by HPRnut
Who is going? I am hoping for some good weather next week.

I have three flights planned for the 18th.

First up will be the return of my I-ROC. I will be flying it single deploy to test the repairs that were made after that \"lovely\" recovery back in April. I cut out the zipper and filled it with epoxy with a layer of fiberglass over that. The flight will be on an I161.

The next flight will be \"El Destructo\". This one hasn\'t flown since LDRS 28 and will be flying on my first Pro 38 motor, a G115 White Thunder with a 9 second delay.

The last flight that I have planned is my Black Brant II on a H123 with a 10 second delay. It has been 2 years since I have flown it, and it should be a great flight.

All three flights will be dedicated to the men and women who lost their lives on 9/11.

Hi,

My son and I will be attending. We have ...

-- \"The Mini Cluster of Doom\" a 6 x C6 cluster knock-off one of Boris\' larger beasts.

-- My L1 attempt #2 with a.k.a the Crayon. Someone can give me a parachute folding lesson this time.

-- A pair of Fliskits Long Overdue to drag race

-- A new Fliskits Deuce

-- A Fliskits Nantucket Sound

And ...

If I am successful on my L1, an Upscale Deuce that will go up on a cluster of two G motors (also contingent that I finish assembling it this week).:woohoo:

Hi,

I would like to attend with my son. I\'ve never been to an organized launch and I have a few questions.
  • Is there somewhere I can find info on the procedures or how things are done? ( I saw the Range Etiquette thread but that seems to be a discussion of what to publish.)
  • Are there any fees?
  • Is membership in CMASS required?
Thanks in advance for any info.

  • No although that\'s something we need to add. Basically just follow the parking directions and bring your rockets and engines and we\'ll explain the rest.

  • Are there any fees?

  • Usually there is but since Fliskits is covering the field use fee for the 9/18 launch there won\'t be any.

  • Is membership in CMASS required?


  • No but we\'d love to have you join. You should consider joining the NAR too.
