NCR Club Launch

Pawnee Grasslands - North Site

Saturday September 7th, 2002

Launch Summary

A beautiful day on the prairie set the stage for a good day of flying. John Wilke made a ground-shaking flight with his hybrid Ratt K240 powered "Screaming Mimi". Dale Netherton and Scott Harless made successful, but short Icarus attempts - Dale's "Cross Fingers" was the first boosted-dart entry in the contest. Chris Hickins brought out and flew a beautiful 20-year old Black Brant 2 that has spent most of its life on display at a local hobby store.

Weather Conditions

Clear and hot with calm winds aloft. Ground breezes blew most of the day. Clouds developed late in the day and a light sprinkle fell as we shutdown and cleaned up the equipment.

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.
