Next Launch Saturday, October 20th

Update: The weather is looking great for Saturday right now, and John has confirmed we are a GO for our launch this weekend. Ken Allen from Performance Hobbies will be on site for all of your rocketry needs wnich is great to hear.

As we mentioned earlier we will only have access to the back portion of the field, past where the wind sock is, so the power levels will be restricted to D and under... maybe if the wind is with us or on a heavy rocket we might sneak in an E motor. No "sparky's" because of the presence of the rest of the soy beans that will be drying down by then. Remember, this is Kip's livelyhood and a huge investment, so we must treat it with care.

This will be a Saturday only launch.

Are there some limitations at the field that would make this a low power day? Encroaching crops, waiver problems etc? Thanks
