All, 

 

My apologies. I missed the launch announcement here. Along with inclement weather the week before hand, and a missing NOTAM which didn't appear until late the night before, there was a chance the launch day wouldn't happen. However, it all came together. Great weather, reasonably low winds resulted in a great morning. For the first time in a while we had a lot of action on the B pad with both hybrid and conventional rocket motors. A number of the younger attendees mentioned how loud some of the launches were.

A total of 13 super entertaining launches with different degrees of success, 4 x C / 3 x E / 2 x F / 2 x H / 1 x I / 1 x J.  Successful L1 and L2 certification attempts on the conventional rockets. Unfortunately, not a huge amount of success on the hybrid rockets with a few attempts but they seemed to suffer from plumbing issues with the nitrous loading plumbing. 

Cheers.

Simon.
