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.

Saturday canceled due to wind

DateFriday, February 24, 2012 at 3:51PM

Hey folks. I'm doing this from my phone so bear with we. Saturday we're calling off due to the high winds forecasted but Sunday is a GO. I'll post more when I get to a computer.

OK, Now that I have a real keyboard... Between the rain on Wednesday night, which was a very good amount at the farm, plus the winds forecasted for Saturday, between 20 - 35+ MPH for most of the day, on top of the rain projected for Friday night, it looks like Saturday would be pretty much a bust for flying.

We're GO for Sunday, and Ken is coming to boot, so bring your checkbooks and buy some stuff.

This will be Bob Bernatchie's last weekend with us. For those who haven't heard he's taken a job in Houston, TX. that will take him away from us. (He will have the NASA folks to fly with though!)

So come on out on Sunday and have a great time...
