Tripoli Indiana (https://www.tripoliindiana.com/) will be hosting an HPR/LPR rocket launch on the weekend of Nov. 21 and 22. We will have a waiver to 16,000 feet. Flights will be under Tripoli and NAR rules. Low power, mid-power and high-power flights are welcome.
Our launch field can be viewed in google maps at +40° 33' 27.16", -86° 50' 17.59" and is located north of Lafayette, Indiana Harvesting is on-going at the field, and it should be clear by the launch date. The field is less than two hours from the Chicago Loop, one hour 20 minutes from Indianapolis, two hours twenty minutes from Champaign, Il.
We have a commitment from one on-site motor vendor (to be announced shortly). There will not be an on-site food vendor, but food is available in Battleground, approximately 15 minutes away. Many hotels and restaurants are available in the Lafayette/West Lafayette area, which is also home to Purdue and the mighty Boilermakers. Camping for the hardy is available 15 minutes away in Prophetstown State Park.
More information will be forthcoming.
Thanks,
Sam
