Great pictures and videos Mike, Thanks!
P.S. The black and yellow Kestral was my favorite. 🙄
David,
I had to leave before you returned from retrieving your Kestral. Did it land on private property? Did the astro take you right to it?
It was a beautiful flight and I appreciate you sharing the prep time with me!

Thanks to Mike, too, who was really helpful to me setting up on Saturday, and who really goes out of his way to help the club at every launch.
We all really need to thank Mike. He tows, helps set up/tear down, and puts glorious pictures up for everyone to see.
He also wandered around with me for hours helping find one of my rockets on a previous launch.
Thanks Mike. Much appreciated.
Ditto on all the comments about Mike. He helps out when you least expect it and is an all round great guy. There are a lot of great guys in this group which is why it is always so enjoyable to get out there and fly. The knowledge people are willing to share, their time, their efforts, and Joe H. is right up there also. Thanks to all of you who participate. This makes me regret not participating more myself. 😳
Sure thing Dave, anytime.
It landed 3.3 miles N.E., went 22,982′ @ 1053 MPH. Thanks to James, drove to 2.2 miles, then yup, walked right out to it.
We are Good to Go with our scheduled and approved launch on Saturday April 5th and Sunday April 6th, from the North Site, subject to change – Mostly cloudy and High Winds predicted. Range and waiver should be active by 9AM on Saturday. The Pawnee National Grassland remains fragile and dry, so extra precautions are in order. Please stay on the authorized roads and please don’t park more than 100’ off the road at the flight line.
