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.

I really wanted to post this last night but we were trying to find a better outcome. The outlook is not looking good for Saturday. Rain overnight, albeit not a lot predicted, but the winds forecast for Saturday really bites. Winds kick up to 15-25 mph basically from 11 in the morning right through to 8 PM. And, they're heading right across the field to the north tree line.
I'm still holding out hope for Sunday however. Winds top out at about 12 and they've swapped direction to more down the runway. Ralph is checking in with Kip to see what he thinks as well.
 Please stay tuned later today and tonight for updates for Sunday but I really think Saturday is out as a flying day.
