2011-09-11 NCR Club Launch - September 2011

NCR Club Launch - September 2011

North Site - Pawnee National Grasslands

Sunday September 11th, 2011

Launch Summary

Regularly scheduled NCR TRA Research launch.  Range needed little modification from Saturday's set up.  Thanks to the Reilly's for towing the trailer to Ed's for the Equipment Cleanup prior to Oktoberfest.
20 different flyers put up 54 flights.  Randomly listed and motor breakdown as follows: A'=s 2, B's=2, C's=9, D's=8, NO E's or F's, G's=9, H's=12, I's=1, J's=4, K's=3 and 4 Research loads.

Weather Conditions

You had to have been there.  Whereas Saturday's weather was about the best rocket flying weather imaginable, Sunday's was even better.  That is, until about three PM when the thermals and wind kicked in - but we were about done by then anyway.  And the prairie moon was bright enough to read by Saturday night.  Should be about the same brightness for the  Oktoberfest weekend.

All launch events will be conducted using nationally approved/accepted range safety practices. The launching of rockets on NFS land is normally prohibited under a Forest Service Region 2 fire regulation. The issuance of NCR’s permit allows launches to take place by exempting the Holder from that regulation for approved launch events only. All launches, other than those conducted by the Holder during approved launch events, are outside the scope of this permit and are prohibited by Forest Service regulations.
