I also got to Katz's for some pastrami.
I hope you brought some back for the rest of us!
I also got to Katz's for some pastrami.
There was no line when I was at Katz's, actually I went twice over the holidays. I guess I got there when it was slow.
The problem with popping mains at 500 ft. is that I typically use 75-100 ft. of shock cord, and if the chute doesn't open instantly, that doesn't leave much room for error.

I'm planning to be there. I love the Acton launch site, its less than 2 miles from my house. That said, I almost hung a rocket in the power lines the last time I flew there.

The pictures I have seen of MDRA and URRG have trees scary close, at least by what I am used to. Also at TCC and Black Rock you can drive fairly close to the rocket (right up to it on Black Rock), so no hiking a mile carrying a 30 pound rocket.
I am aware there are a few places with high waivers, however, none of them would handle the 28k flight I did in 2013 at Black Rock. I am hoping to do a minimum diameter M flight at URRG when I get a chance, with a smaller motor this time.
