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.

« Happy ChristmaHanuKwanSolstiFestivus! | Main | Roy's Rocket Report for 11/29 & 11/30/19 »

Holiday Launch 12/21 & (possibly) 12/22

DateFriday, December 20, 2019 at 10:46PM

Hello fellow ROCC'ers! The pre-ChrismaHanuKwanzSolstiFestivus launch weekend is upon us! 

Saturday weather is looking extremely nice, with low winds (3-5 MPH) out of the NE to N (heading away from Mr. S), and temps are supposed to be in the mid 40's so dress in layers.   

UPDATE: Ken will be with us on SUNDAY IF WE LAUNCH, NOT SATURDAY. 

Set-up about 9:30, should be launching by 10:30, close up at 5 PM. 

Now then, for Sunday... It's really a crapshoot as I write this at Noon Friday. There's a large high pressure zone to our south that depending on where it goes on Saturday will determine when & how much rain we get on Sunday and Monday. We'll need to make a call on Saturday depending on the updated forecasts. 

If you want to fly this weekend, looks like Saturday is the day!

See ya out there...  dr
