Guys, there will be a time and place to discuss this. NAR and TRA are investigating and will make an official statement when they have more info.

Openly discussing these topics on the internet will cause more spread of a bad representation of Rocketry. Keeping it minimal and letting both organizations do their diligence in investigating what occurred is important. All were doing by discussing here is complete speculation and causing misrepresentation of the hobby. Best to let the facts be discovered and allow them to be shared whe it's time.

It has been requested that we not discuss it on the open forum until more is known. I am locking so please do not restart another thread on the topic.

Clarification:

I hid all posts except the original and my post. I was asked by a member of the investigating team to lock it. I chose to lock it to avoid reposts of the same topic. No one is trying to hide anything. They will release the facts once the investigation is complete.

Once again, if you have direct knowledge of the event, contact NAR or the club in CO.
