October Fly XIV update

At this point we have 9 people who are due to come to the contest, so we need one more to make it a regional.  So, if you are an NAR member and can show up either Saturday or Sunday at Buder Park for a contest flight I'd appreciate it.   You can fly any rocket any motor in the Random duration event.

So, please help out if you can.

October Fly XIV

OK, October Fly will be this weekend, Saturday and Sunday. I know that the club is considering a launch at Elsberry. I don't want to stand in the way of that as we have few chances at getting on that field. However, if you are a NAR member please consider entering the contest by proxy if you are not coming in person. I just need a signed CB170 and a rocket to fly. I will have forms at the Tuesday meeting. Also there will be prizes courtesy of Andy Jackson of Aerospace Specialty Products!

October Fly, 2015

I have to look at my records to be sure but this fall we will host the 14th or 15th October Fly on October 17,18 at Buder Park.   Here is a proposed list of events.

Event                    WF

A RG                    20

1/2 A BG              17

1/2 A HD               19

1/2 A SRA             14

Random Duration   10

total WF=80

This list is posted as tentative, if you want to make suggestion, please do.   I would like to finalize the list in a week or so.   We had discussed partnering with the Science Center and running this on central field in Forest Park but I do not know if we have time to pull that off.

Please note that I do have a small supply of Pnut altimeters that I will allow people to use, on condition that if you damage or lose it you replace it!
