 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.

June Launch update - Field status as of June 12th....

DateTuesday, June 12, 2007 at 5:40AM

Spoke to Kip last night.
I hate to say he is still in the process of cutting the Barley out of the fields at the farm.
He has cleared the field to the North, behind the farm house, however that is as far has he has progressed. Needless to say he needs to complete all before we can fly. He has his equipment down there and is planning on getting it out ASAP as long as it stays dry. So at this point we will have to check back with him next week to see where he is at.

I also spoke to him about the stalks that are left once he does cut the Barley out. It would still be a bad fire hazard if they don't receive any rain. So we need to hope it stays dry enough to harvest then wet enough for us to fly by the 23rd.

Anyway that is where we are at. I will be out there this weekend so I will personally check everything out, but at this time we are still on HOLD for a launch.

Thanks,
Ralph
