Launch Summary
Regularly scheduled launch. Thanks to Ken Reilly for towing both ways and to Jon Skuba and crew for running the launch.
From Jon's notes:
We had the best weather in perhaps 2 years on Saturday. The winds got to perhaps 15 mph for a few minutes late in the day. The rest of the day ground winds probably didn't get over 5 mph very often and up high it was calm. Everything was landing real close to the launch pad. A couple of flights came back within 50 ft of their launch pads.
When I showed up at 8 am, there was only me, David Bishop, the Rileys (all asleep), and the Wilkes (all asleep). David and I set up a few pads, the launch desks and went back to prepping. All through the day, though, people kept showing up and, by midday, we had a pretty good crowd. Here are the details:
92 flights by 36 fliers
B = 2
C = 7
D = 6
E = 17
F = 11
G = 26
H = 10
I = 11
J = 0
K = 2
Ron Coffee LCO'd 28 launches and I LCO'd the other 64.
I've got the box of launch cards, 2 trash buckets, your waiver file, and a check for $72 from Zach Crawford.
Attached you should find a spreadsheet with all the data entered roughly in reverse order.
Bear, Chad, David, and I all made progress in the Alpha Clone contest. Dennis Billings biffed on his 3rd or 4th E flight. I'm on my second H, still with no strikes. I think Bear is in second on his second G but with a couple of strikes.
