NCR Club Launch

Pawnee Grasslands - Atlas Site

Saturday December 6th, 2003

Launch Summary

A busy day on the pads saw several Level 2 certification attempts (at this writing, the success of each was not known). Don Spillman captured the view from "space" with his VidRoc equipped Copper Top. A couple of K launches roared to life from the away pads with Steve Marshall's first K launch of his El Diablo and Steve Meshburn's K to airstart 4-G cluster of his Bruiser.

Weather Conditions

Cold and partly cloudy. No wind.

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.
