METRA Launch on May 3rd and 4th. June and July dates Confirmed

[Mick2b]

Great News !!!!! METRA has secured our sections on our home field for the June and July launches. June’s launch will take place May 31st and June 1st. July’s Launch will be July 12th and 13th. The exact plot will be located during our launch next weekend on May 3rd and 4th. Please join us then. As always, we need help transporting the equipment to and from the storage container. Please lend a hand when possible as it maximizes flying time. We will see everyone next weekend and now put the future dates in your calendar.

Hey Ted,

Actually nothing to do with work. I will be moving into my new place this weekend. After reviewing the dates I may be able to make the June launch.

Might be seeing you at the RR launch coming up on the 10th, if I can swing some free time and the weather cooperates.

Don't pass on it because of the weather forecast,,,,,,,,,
Last year each time it was close to the launch being called
because of the weather forecast it turned out to be a super beautiful day..........

Last I looked it was supposed to be gorgeous on Saturday but windy............

How is the weather looking now?

It's pretty funny,,,,
Check out the hourly forecast for Saturday and check out the hourly for Sunday.......
When it's this close in time I think the forecast's are fairly accurate...........

Figures that Sunday would be the better day of the weekend.

We've overall had absolutely fantastic weather,,,,,
And just a great time each and every time we are at the field........
Maybe a little cloudy,,,,,,,,,,
No biggie..............
