PHITS Atlas Launch

PHITS Atlas - Pawnee Grasslands

Saturday February 2nd, 2002

Launch Summary

A good day for breaking the February 'jinx' with plenty of nice flights. Jon Skuba's Viper Plus set the 'E' record at 2537 feet. Conway Stevens flew his first Kosden to reach 1 Mile High and there were two L1 certification flights. BoB flew for the 427th time (we think).

Weather Conditions

The day started cold (in the 20's) with high cirrus clouds and strong winds aloft. Clearing and warming as the day progressed. The afternoon was calm and clear.

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.
