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.

EXTRA, EXTRA.... Wanna go to an Air Show?

DateFriday, November 3, 2017 at 9:18PM

We got an email from Paul Schaefer yesterday that I wanted to pass on...  

 

Good morning, We, (Tripoli nc) Michael Gunter and myself are displaying and catering at the Warbirds over Monroe airshow next weekend.      (edit... event website is HERE)

We are fund-raising for a full scale Nike Ajax project and recruiting for Tripoli. We are in need of any assistance available. 50,000 people are expected to attend the show.
Volunteers would be greatly appreciated.

We appologize for the short notice but it took awhile for us to get final nod from the organizers.

We are bringing our launch trailer with 1/2 scale Nike Ajax, Our 22' rocket grill.

The half-scale project is 16" dia. build,  18' tall rocket, name is TBD.

We are bringing food donated by US foods And Chandler Foods to cater and raise funds for the full scale Nike Ajax project, to be a 37' tall 2 stage project.

The menu is Brunswick stew, Janitas Carolina Stew, Pork BBQ, cornbread, cookies, etc.

We just need some physical assistance if you guys have or know of any younger folks to help serve food. Michael and I get so caught up in the presentation it's hard to do it all. (we are both disabled.)

We can offer some, but not a lot of money for your time, maybe $8 an hour?? 

Please get in touch ASAP...
