Upcoming Launch Schedule

ROCC 2023-2024 Launch Schedule:

All launches are at the Midland, NC site unless otherwise stated.*

Midland is Closed for the season

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.

Update Thursday evening...

 Well this just sucks...  the weather that looked so promising on Tuesday is now closing in on Saturday with a vengeance. 

Rain is now predicted to go right through Friday and into Saturday till about 1 PM. Total is around .5 - .75 inches in Midland.
 

Stay tuned tomorrow, we'll see how the rain clouds move. DAMN YOU mother nature!!

Welcome back folks, looks like we're a GO for at least Saturday the 16th and hopefully Sunday the 17th. It looks like there is some rain due over Thursday PM and Friday AM, but currently they're projected to be less than a 1/4 inch with sun and reasonably clear weather on Saturday. Winds are predicted to be up to 14 MPH from the NE on Saturday morning and then dropping away to 10 MPH by the end of the day. Sunday is fairly steady winds from the NE at 10 until 5 PM. 

Ken is due to be with us on Saturday only, and in Maryland on Sunday, so if you're stocking up on motors or parts come out on Saturday at least to do business. 

As far as set-up, since it's going to be windy I'd say lets start set-up at 10, field open by 11.

Membership...  if you're owed a T-shirt we've gotten the shirts back in Charlotte and we'll have the current stock there this weekend. If we don't have size &/or color available then we're probably going to have to get a new order processed.

We're also re-working the membership files and trying to get the website current, I thank you for your patience!

Looking forward to getting back to flying, see you all soon!
