Heady with the win of our team (SWOSU) at the Argonia Cup, we're going to have our annual 2 day Sooner Shootout on April 23/24 at the Sayre Airport.
Please be aware that the forcast does not look too promising. Check here or on the TOK web site for final determination (https://www.tripolioklahoma.org/).
As always, we'll be putting the launch pads out about 10:00 am. Everything, everyone is welcome! Mod rocks? Great! Flying an EX motor? You're welcome, too. Our waiver is to 16,500 AGL (if you're flying anything approaching 10,000 AGL, please notify the prefect). Why fly with us at Sayre? Because it's flat! Argonia looks like the Rocky Mountains, and they've shut down for growing season (we don't)! Plus, milo and buffalo* free! We now have Featherweight trackers with carrier sleds to use at the launch. *the buffalo are back, but they keep to themselves (absolutely NO llamas, though!)
Location: Sayre Municipal Airport, 6.2 miles South (on Hwy 283) of the Flying J truck stop at Exit 20 on Interstate 40. Indoor bathroom with a sink! (not a plastic box) Lots of flat land to recover in.
If the weather cancels the launch this weekend, we *may* be able to reschedule, stay tuned!
Next scheduled launch is the Multi-Motor Madness on May 22. The launch is dedicated to our friend and rocketeer extraordinair James Brazzel (Braz).
