I was running out of room in the menubar area, so I had to collapse it, and changed the way it looks quite a bit.

I have added a link to the Flight Logs in the Club menu at the top of the wordpress pages.

The new system handles clustered and multi-staged flights.

An “equivalent impulse” will be computed at entry time and displayed on the flight record.

The bonfire calculation will be the sum of the mass for each motor.

Here is an example:

Here is a screenshot of the admin screen for managing the launch events.

From here you can create new launch events, and enter flights.

The “My Rockets” page is meant to display the rockets associated with the currently logged in user, if that user is also a known flyer in the Club’s flight log system.

Please Note:

If you are a flyer with the club, and you have a login to the website, but the page does not work for you, or you don’t have the “My Flights”, “My Rockets”, and “My…[Read more]

New charts have been added to all of the individual launches.

Members and Friends,

Sad but true.  As we had feared, we have not received our FAA waiver for our launches scheduled for April 6/7 and are forced to postpone the launch. This delay appears to be caused by a backlog of work caused by the federal government shutdown that occurred earlier this year. We have been concerned that this may be the case…[Read more]

I’ve made some updates to the flight logs, I cleaned up the html some, and got some reports that show top-30 flyers, motors, and rockets by year.

Take a look:

I’ve still got a lot of work to do on the actual entry form for creating new flight records.

Members and friends,

NCR has a GO for launch Saturday, March 30th only, at the Atlas Site.  The Ranger says NCR can proceed with the March 30th launch as planned but, as usual, that is subject to change. The prairie remains fragile and vulnerable.  Vegetation is dry out there.  Relative humidity is down and ground moisture content is low but if…[Read more]

Hi everyone –

I got something cool working last night and wanted to share.

The source code is here on GitHub https://github.com/ncrclub/flight-logs if you want to contribute, let me know.

Please consider this under development, and these links may not work forever, but to get an idea of some of the things that will be included with the new…[Read more]

Members and Friends,

Our planned Saturday March 9th Atlas launch has been scrubbed.  High winds and the predicted cloud cover equals a common sense approach to winter rules on the Front Range – Mother Nature wins again.

Apologies for the late decision making but really, the weather forecast is not in our favor.

NO GO for Saturday March 9t…[Read more]
