This was the first time this year I was able to go out and fly some rockets myself. I had a great time with nice weather and light winds made for a enjoyable day. I personally got 5 flights in that all launched and recovered successfully. This club is my favorite to launch with since they fly...

Just snapped some photo's while I was there. I work for a high powered rocket company (LOC/Precision) so that is what I primarily focused on. I think it was a girl in the black storm trooper outfit, she had to be roasting. The Aussie's Petar & Blake A rocket being loaded...

This is a new independent rocket club AKA Team Ohio, AKA Tripoli Mid-Ohio called Ohio Aerospace Modeling Consortium. They had their first fall season launch this past weekend and I was happy to be a part of it. Some of these pics will be out of order, I was using 2 cameras and didn't rearrange...

I'll start this by telling everyone that I work at LOC/Precision and that I have talked to many of you on the phone or met in person at various launches. My main duty is manufacturing all of the recovery components but I do a bit of everything. I was a parachute rigger in the US Navy and I'm...

I just started making these specifically for the 2011 TARC competition, they are parasheets that measure 15 3/8" across with 6 suspension lines. If you need something different (made to your specifications) just let me know. These are available through LOC/Precision but they are not listed on...

LOC/Precision has just received 10,000 of our new 1500 series rail buttons. These are a new style with a recess machined into them for reduced drag, we still have some of the older style buttons as well without the recess. We have plenty of the 1000 series buttons as well. Other dealers are...

I'm starting a new similar project and I'm looking for photo's of how the altimeter bay was set up.

I got this e-mail from them 1 year later congratulating me for using my photo. I had totally forgotten about this but I think I did it because of a thread posted here. Anyhow mine is on the 2nd page and it's my LOC/Precision 5.5 IQSY Tomahawk. Congratulations! The content you sent on 3/13/2008...

Fifty Years of Math 1958 - 2008 Last week I purchased a burger at Burger King for $1.58. The counter girl took my $2 and I was digging for my change when I pulled 8 cents from my pocket and gave it to her. She stood there, holding the nickel and 3 pennies, while looking at the screen on her...

I'm not even a member but I will be attending this launch with plans of launching my 5.38 Tomahawk on a L1420R for my L2 cert attempt. They have a standing 9,000' waiver with call ins to 14,000! Unheard of in this part of the State where I'm at. Here's a link for more info...

For anyone looking to own a high power pad for themselves I highly recommend this product. I haven't seen any other commercially available pads at this price point. I got all the upgrades on mine and the total delivered cost was $169.00 and Fred was a excellent person to deal with every step of...

Yesterday I was flying and trying out many new rockets and electronics and had a Cato from this motor. I've had ejection fails from single use motors before but never a Cato. This motor was loaded in my Astrobee D and luckily blew straight out the back and didn't blow out the side. When I hit...
