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.

December 19th

DateSaturday, December 19, 2020 at 6:30PM
UPDATE Saturday 6:30 PM...  We are NOT flying on Sunday. We got by with a somewhat squishy field and everyone being careful today but tonight there's supposed to be showers and then rain off and on tomorrow so we're goiing to bag it for Sunday.

Hopefully we can have our traditional January 1st launch!
Hey fellow ROCC'ers! The weather is improving on Sunday so here's the question I have for folks. I have some commitments on Sunday so if we want to have a launch for 2 days we need some commitments of officers that can be there to oversee the launch, keep folks safe, RSO & LCO duties, etc. and make sure we don't violate the waiver.
I can probably be there late on Sunday to help strike.
Ken is only scheduled to be with us (according to his website) on Saturday so if you need motors to fly on Sunday you'd need to make arrangements with him or buy them on Saturday.
Looking at normal times, Set-up at 9:30, range open at 10:30, closing at about 4:30 so we can strike in daylight.
(Remember the Winter Solstice is on the 21st, Jupiter & Saturn will be in the closest alignment since 1623  and the closest observable since 1226!)
Thanks all! dr
