Our first model rocket launch of 2018 is scheduled for this coming Sunday, April 29th at Buder Park. The weather forecasts are finally starting to go our way! The temperature will be in the low 50s at setup time, climbing into the mid to upper 60s, with moderate wind (10mph or less) from the southeast.
Setup time will be 9:00 am, with the goal of having the range open by 9:30. We will fly rockets for as long as people are there with rockets to fly, but as always, the length of the event depends on how many people attend. We are expecting a group of Civil Air Patrol cadets to join us, so we should have a good turnout!
As previously announced by John Buckley, this launch will be sanctioned as a NAR NRC (National Rocketry Competition) launch. Link to official NRC launch information. If you have any questions about the competition aspect of the launch, please contact John at jbuckley1996@gmail.com. Sport flyers (non-competition flyers) are welcome at the launch as always.
If you have any other questions, please email me at admin@stlouisrocketry.com.
