Had a great time at the launch. Can\'t beat free cake! Thanks to Jim Flis for sponsering the launch.
I got a chance to launch seven rockets, three of them with my Altimeter one.

All recovered successfully and undamaged. All in all a good day! Looking forward to launching some E, F and G flights next launch.

Saturday was a great day to fly.

\"El Destructo\" flew great on a Pro-X G115 with a great recovery in the center of the circle.

My Black Brant II flew on a Aerotech H123-10W. The up part was great as usual. The recovery was not so good. There is a good 4 inch or so zipper and the tailcone was shattered upon landing.

My I-ROC made its way back to Amesbury after a not so nice flight in April. I flew it on a Aerotech I161-6W and it landed right on the edge of the long grass by the power lines. The repair that was made held up great.

My last flight was my Fliskits Shadowlord on a D12-5. It was a great flight and perfect recovery.

I am already looking forward to October. I will be at the second launch in October only.
