Who all is going to be at MDRA this weekend? I am bringing my oldest daughter and we have a ton of MPR stuff to put up. Also planning to try to get in my L2 test and flight if I get an answer back from anyone that a test would be available Sunday.

I'll be there for sure on Saturday (RSO duty). I'm not sure about Sunday. I do have the answer key so I can check your test if I'm there Sunday. There are enough of us that are NAR L2 and higher to witness the flight. Problem is administering the written. I have no copies. I know our regular NAR test administrater is out of town. Sealed test packets can be obtained directly from NAR HQ but I think they Need a 1week lead time. I'll make a couple of calls when I get home Tonight (working 2nd shift). OK if I PM you tomorrow with what I can find?

Absolutely Troy, that would be awesome thank you. If not it isn't a big deal, I can do it at another launch.

I wanted to come to this one, but finances don't permit: trying to finish my L2 project. September or October is probably when I'll be able to come back down...
Later!

Nice L2 flight, James. Gotta love a big Vmax motor. Here's the one shot I managed to catch of it.

Man, look at that flame outta that VMAX! Any time the flame is longer than the rocket, it's a good day
Congrats on the successful L2!

Fly 'em high or blow 'em up spectacular!
Nick / Jeff- Thanks. Did learn a lesson to trust my instinct over a sim though when it comes to delays... Was about 3 seconds too long.

I almost used a J1520 in it the other day. Boost will not be quite as straight but I think the next flight on this thing will be with a J360. It is just begging for a skidmark.
