Looks like Bernard Cawley (BEC here) will be one of the presenters. Altimeters maybe?
Looks like a good opportunity to attend a NARCON...never been to one. Earl

Agreed. I've never crashed a rocket at NARCON, and everyone seems to smell better. <G> James |

Attending a convention of any sort in a sober condition sounds lousy.
Bring single malt Scotch. Macallan 25 is superb.

Yep - altimeters. What else?
Specifically altimeters for and in NRC events. Let me know if there is something in particular you would like me to cover or show as my talk is still in the rough outline stage.

I'm sure you will cover it and I suspect any altimeter purchased would talk about this, but the size ports needed to ensure proper and accurate sampling and just how the altimeter should be mounted too to ensure same. And of course any of the 'extra' little 'best tricks of the trade' that only come from flying altimeters quite a bit. I've never even flown one. Earl
