Default January 28th Launch at Bong

Weather depending, the Launch at Bong this Saturday is a go. I checked with the Ranger they said come on out, If the access to the runway is open we can use it.*

Who is planning to go?

I'll be there. I'm bringing my "main course" for Saturday to the meeting tonight. So we won't know where we'll be until Saturday? Weather man says it's going to be breezy.

I sure hope the weather cooperates . did my pre-flight prep...I must have one of the few rockets where flight prep involves; a pipe cleaner, a can of brasso, and a dremel!

Looks like it's going to be a bit breezy, but West winds aren't the worst thing if we can access the runway. Giving it a high luster to improve performance?

Exclamation January 28th launch is called off

Sorry guys the Launch is Called Off for two reasons:

1. Winds over 20 mph with gusts to 30 (ok so what).

2. Wildman will not be there, motor home will not start. *

See ya in Febuary.

Mark

Sorry I can't make it guys .
I went out to the MH today and nothing but sparks flying when I hit the key to start it .
I will be outside most of the day fixing it but better here than at the runway at Bong.

No prob, Timbob, the wind is a factor too. Too bad you'll now have nothing else to do today...
