WOO HOOOOOO!!! BAT-MITE IS LEVEL 3!!!!

I too was wondering if the local land owners were given a heads up about the launch or if this was a surprise landing. Glad they were friendly.

The folks around the farm all know about the launches and have been friendly about returning rockets found on their farms.

But what actually happened was that they called me! I had written my name and home phone number on the NC shoulder, inside the payload bay, and inside the booster. They called my wife, who gave them my cell number, and they called me. Gave me their address. When I got there, they had pulled it away from the pond, loaded the laundry back in, and put it back together. I gave them some spending money for their trouble and invited them to come over and watch the launch. They were happy, I was happy.

We all (they two, myself, and Tom Cohen) stood around listening to the altimeters beep out.

That was a great conclusion to a memorable event! Congrats on accomplishing L3!

Congrats John! Nice looking bird and flight specs!

Congrats! Great Job!

Totaly Bat-ass!

Congrats on the L3!!!!

Now you need to come over to BattlePark this fall and try it on our trailer launcher. I'm assuming a 1515 is needed.

Awesome, congratulations!! Great to see people push past "low and slow" and get it done their way!
