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.

UPDATE on April 14th

DateThursday, April 12, 2007 at 7:24PM

Everyone:

We are going with a Saturday, 14 Apr, one day launch.
With the approaching strong Cold Front and rain holding off until late in the day on Saturday, we are going to attempt to fly one day this coming weekend. There will be no camping and with Sunday's wind forecast being too strong, we will scrub Sunday's launch.

There was some interest to move the start time up on Saturday, so Roy, Paul, and Wayne can arrive early for setup, say 9:30 am. If the others can join, please advise. Again, I will not make it out until 1:30-2:00 pm.

We will not have the NAR contest as winds are forecast to be 5-15 miles per hour and restricted to only one day. Too strong for a productive contest. (you can test fly your rockets for performance though)

Depending on the circumstances and availability we will reschedule the contest to next weekend, April 21st and 22nd. However, based on crop height, that may still be moved again. We will discuss Saturday and consult Kip for next weekend.

Everything else is pretty much as in the original announcement. (Except most things!-doc r)

The ROCC Rocket Raffle will be held at about mid-day on Saturday. Good luck everyone.

Thanks,
ROCC Prez.

PS Mark, Terry the Wildman orders did not ship, hopefully they will be here next week. Feel free to call and discuss. Sorry he was waiting on Aerotech on a motor I ordered.
