Upcoming Launch Schedule

ROCC 2024-2025 Launch Schedule:

NO launch in May due to the wheat. We hope to fly in June. 

 

 All launches are at the Midland, NC site unless otherwise stated.*

Here are some other launch opportunities in our area:

ICBM & ROSCO, better known as Rocketry South Carolina, flies near Dalzelle, SC., Just NE of Shaw AFB.  More information can be gotten at their site HERE

The Saturn Rocketry Club in Hendersonville is currently switching their launch field. As soon as we know where they land we will post it. Their FB site is HERE

NC Rocketry flies at Bayboro, NC in the northeast part of the state, information is HERE

 Set-up starts at about 9:30, launches commence about 10:30. Field closes about 60 min. before local dusk so we can clean up. Watch the site front page for specifics. Also visit us on FaceBook. You can also check for the FAA NOTAM at https://notams.aim.faa.gov/notamSearch/nsapp.html#/ and using KCLT (Charlotte) as the location. This will give you the starting and ending times for HP flights. 

* If field is available due to crops, etc.

March launch a go for the 19th & 20th

DateWednesday, March 16, 2005 at 4:20AM

Ralph asked that the following items be sent out to our mailing list:

1. Ralph, while on his way to Tennessee, gave Steve Bumgarner a call, and he passed it on to me, to suggest that we cancel and reschedule the "Launch Camp-Out" this weekend because of the projected rainy week ahead. It looks like the stormy weather will make the ground pretty mushy and no fun to camp upon. We'll try the camp-out again at a later date, maybe the "Return to the Farm Launch" after crop season is over. Or maybe sooner, who knows.

2. This weekends launch will go on as scheduled, but with one suggestion.
Since Ken Allen of Performance Hobbies has indicated that he will be our vendor this month - on Sunday only - that perhaps we should start launching around 10:00 AM on Sunday morning to give Ken and all the fliers more time to conduct buisness together.

Watch the weather for Sat, but remember, no mater what its doing in
Charlotte, it can still be good flying weather out at the farm.

As it stands for now, setup on Saturday will be at 11:00 am with flights to
start as soon as setup is complete. We will probably put the launch equipment up for the night, or cover it with tarps for Sundays launch. We can't say exactly when Ken Allen will pull in. Hopefully we will have a projected time of arrival by Sat night.

OK, hope to see you all out there. Take care and remember to keep your
exhaust nozzles clear.
