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.

ROCC January 18th & 19th postponed due to rain

DateFriday, January 17, 2020 at 11:42AM

Hi folks...  As you may have noticed it's been a rainy week in lake Midland, with the rain guage getting almost 2" of rain between Sunday and Wednesday night. From communications with Kip he said that the creek overflowed, the runway was a lake and he was thinking of buying a set of floats for the Piper Cub. 

That said, with rain an almost certainty tomorrow even Sunday would be out of the question. 

We're going to re-set for next weekend, the 25th-26th, and hope that Tlaloc will let us fly next weekend. 

Now that doesn't mean there's nothing Rockety going on this weekend. Both SEVRA and NOVAR are launching on Saturday, and we have the SpaceX In-Flight Abort Test to look forward to early on Saturday morning. Details on that are all over the web, here's just one LINK. 

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but we can't really fight Momma Nature.
