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.

March 6th & 7th are GO at Midland field

ROCC's March 6 & 7 at Midland NC launch is a go. I think we have enough folks that we can pull off a 2-day launch. Thanks for folks that have said that they can be available.

Set-up at 10 am, fly by 11 am.
Again, Ken will be in Virginia this weekend, so if you have extra motors you want to barter with or some items to sell to the rest of us this might be a really good weekend to set up a boot sale. We can make it like a swap meet kind of thing, put out whatcha got and see if you can flog it.
Weather is still looking good for both days, Saturday cloudy but no rain and upper 50's, winds SE at about 5 mph. Sunday is almost no clouds, upper 50's again but winds are higher, SE at up to 11 mph by 4 pm.
I have 4 folks that have said they want to take the NAR L2 exam, there's no set time, just catch me Saturday and I'll set you up with a test. We'll grade it on the field so you know if you passed or failed.
See you all on the field!!
