NCR Club Launch

Pawnee Grasslands - North Site

Saturday May 14th, 2005

Launch Summary

Most notable for this launch were the presence of Erie Middle School and the Heatherwood Elementary school group that Jon Skuba has been mentoring. The bunch of kids kept the low power range busy all day. Jon and the club president Joe managed to get Yardbird lofted again on a Rattworks L and successfully recovered the rocket and the two rubber chickes that went along for the ride. John Wilke had some awesome shots, finishing the Race to Space in style. Troy launched his Iris on an Animal Motorworks K-570 Green Gorilla and Jeff Gessaman took a shot at the Icarus on an Aerotech I-195.Thanks to John Wilke for towing the trailer out and to Brock Bayes for towing home.

Weather Conditions

Weather was clear, calm and hot. Winds strenghtened toward the end of the day after most flights had been logged.

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.
