Greetings fellow TRFers! <a href="https://www.rocstock.org/rocstock.html">ROCStock XX</a> is still about 3 weeks away as of this writing, but I wanted to go ahead and poll the forum and see if there are any TRFers that will be attending. (ROCStock XX will be held from Nov. 12-15. See website for more details.)
Jason Toft (jetra2) and I along with our rocketry supporting dads will be flying out to California from Florida to attend our first western desert launch. While at Lucerne we will meet up with Eric Williams and witness the 25th flights and midway point in the "Tour de Deuce" project. I am personally excited to have the opportunity to attend only my 2nd night launch, my first real large rocket meet, and to see a lot of the faces of those that I might otherwise not have the chance to meet. This will also mark the FIFTH state I am present during a "Tour de Deuce" launch so I'm already familiar with the routine. (FL, HI, AL, NC, coming soon: CA, down the road: NH)
Favor Request: For those of you in the local vicinity and that will be attending the meet, I need to make arrangements with you to have a pair of any of the following motors available at the launch: G35-7W (non-CATO ones ), G38-8FJ, G40-7/10W, or G80-10T (WL or FJ preferred). I will also need a pair of dipped igniters or other reliable composite cluster igniter. I am planning on shipping my <a href="https://www.rocketryforum.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=131241">29mm Deuce's Wild!</a> for a great high flight in the desert and would love to prearrange motor availability. If you will be attending and can help me out in this regard, I will gladly reimburse you and maybe I'll toss in a Florida T-Shirt or something.
I can't wait until November. This will be a great time so long as the weather holds out. If you're out there drop by and say hello. We'll have a TRF banner flying. Jason and I will be the goofy ones with the dazed looks in our eyes. See you in 3 weeks.
