”I just think he is overly ambitious sometimes, and maybe it would be better to fly some of his stuff far, far away.”
In both videos it looks like people are standing really close to the rockets at launch. Crazy flights. I’m just glad that kind of thing wouldn’t go at my group’s launches.
I’m not addressing the unstable flight; things like that should not happen but they do. That doesn’t mean we think it is acceptable, but it was absolutely not indicative of the safety awareness at the launch.
Safe launch distances were observed at all times. Anytime you see a launch video it has almost certainly been taken from the flight line using a long lens which makes distances appear very compressed. That’s what you’re seeing. This was a very well laid out and managed range at LDRS 37. TCC did a good job.
