Michiana Rocketry Members and Friends
Just a reminder that we will be having our scheduled December 8th launch this coming Saturday.
STATUS IS CURRENTLY A GO
The launch on Saturday will be at the usual set up time at 9 am and flying from 10 am to 4 pm. Note that since we are very close to the shortest day of the year and the sun will setting shortly after 5 pm we will end this launch around 4:00 pm to have time to pack up the equipment before dark, so if you are planning a certification flight you need to get this done earlier in the day as you don’t want to be looking for your rocket in the dark.
The weather forecast so far seem to be looking great for our Saturday launch, mostly sunny, low winds at 6 mph, 31 Degree F temperature so dress warm
We are planning on having the launch this Saturday unless something drastic happens to the weather between now and Saturday so always check the website before you make the trip down.
We will have our 12,000 foot waiver in place, and do to the mostly sunny skies that are being forecasted we can use every bit of this. You can go to our website to check what available equipment and launch pads that will be on site.
Also back by popular demand:
ROCKETPOXY is sponsoring a free lunch for this Saturdays Michiana Rocketry launch
Food will be Italian beef sandwiches (yes the real deal from Chicago Vienna beef) and chili.
Served around 12 noon EST onsite at Michiana rocketry launch field.
Also we will be having our annual Michiana Rocketry club meeting.
So, let’s all come on out and have a great time.
