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

 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.

The LEAP-LAUNCH February 29th & March 1st

DateFriday, February 28, 2020 at 2:02PM

We are a GO for launching this weekend, starting a bit late on Saturday and then a regular day Sunday. 

Saturday we will set up at 11:30, flying by NOON. This should allow any rain that comes tonight to dissipate.

It's going to be very windy on Saturday, winds 10 - 15 mph but directly down the runway from the west. Kind of chilly as well, so dress in layers. 

Sunday is a good deal warmer, less windy at 5-7 mph but shifting from the WSW so kind of toward the Simpson farm. Watch your rod angles and your chute depolyments!

Ken should be with us this weekend since it's an off-weekend for him. 

See you at the pads!!
