The forecast keeps changing but it looks like we'll have a window of opportunity to fly on the sixth in Acton. As it will likely be raining in the morning, we'll look at setting up about noon.and launch until 4 (or as long as we reasonably can). Like last time, we'll have a reduced set up.

The predicted wind will be strong blowing toward Route 2 so keep the flights low.

Have fun, folks! Deb and I are gonna sit this one out. Sounds like too small and sketchy a flying window to pay off for our four hours' drive. Good luck to those going and I hope the weather fairy blesses you with pleasant surprises. Hopefully see ya later in the month.

Well, that's going to cut down on our launch total. Keep an eye on the forecast as the day breaks; it's gotten worse since I posted but it may get better.

No worries, I have a few new rockets to try but they're pretty small.

The weather forecast has deteriorated but we'll still assemble at the field about noon and figure out if we can set up and fly.

If we're not able to start by 1 o'clock, we'll call off the formal club launch. If that happens,

There may be a bandit launch later in the afternoon. That would be a much reduced event but a possibility to scratch your launch itch.
