Launch Summary

Special September club launch and birthday celebration for member Art Hoag.

Weather Conditions

The wind blew steady most of the night before but the early morning breeze finally calmed down to a gentle wisp for most of the day. Patchy clouds but mostly clear skies under 12,000' made for particularly good flying conditions. Temperatures probably reached to the high 70's.

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.
