I’m not too worried about that happening… I plan on flying in December if I have to wait… but I will fly.Warren

I’m all for that. I already spent what the pot is in getting the MAWD and motor… plus the sundries a rocket requires. The thing that keeps killing me… is that we are all striving to go the highest… and…   Read more»

Warren,I like the idea, but would further propose we all ante up another 20 and newcomers ante 40,J

By the way, I would add that if all remaining launches are cancelled this year due to fire ban, that the monies paid for the SSS and SSSS roll forward into the 2007. Just in case…Warren

I thought this was the case as well, but no harm in someone asking. So far no one has flown–just a lot of BS and conjecture, right? So I move that whether stated explicitly or not, we agree that all…   Read more»

Yes indeed I do John, though to be honest I don’t remember the rule – it does make total sense and quite frankly, I don’t want to deal with administering flights made outside sanctioned NCR launches. Thanks for reminding me.Warren

Agreed, John. My understanding as well. The playing, or flying, field must remain equal. Don’t vector the variables.

It was my very clear understanding that SSS and SSSS shots *must* be flown at an NCR event. That was the way it was set up last year. In changing over the website, I don’t see that now. If that…   Read more»

I must have missed that. Is the burn ban official? For future reference where would I go to check the status? Guess it’s time to get to work on my Octoberfest rocket. Sure glad I got some flights in last…   Read more»

That has been discussed, but no decision was made. Currently, the only valid site to fly the SSS or SSSS at is either Pawnee North or the Atlas Site. If we do get a burn ban, I will discuss with…   Read more»

Is this legal–flying sss from 8800′?

Yep – I may well fly my SSS at hartsel if the burn ban lasts any significant length of time. Still, with any luck, it will rain some this summer (it certainly rained 2 years ago ), and we’ll…   Read more»

🙂 Also keep in mind that UROC will host HellFire on July 13-16. I Know several NCR members will be there. And I can tell everyone first hand that the UROC bunch is a fun bunch to fly with. And…   Read more»

I sold those motor cans today to a young man who’s looking to get his level 1 certification soon.

What cases are they exactly? I am interested.Conway

think i have this covered.

Go to an art store… they use mat board for framing pictures. I grab scraps. It is very rigid, and it cuts like a dream with a straightedge. I also keep all my old ones, so I rarely have to…   Read more»

I don’t know Warren, we spend how many hundreds of dollars building and flying rockets? A couple of extra bucks to make the job easier sounds reasonable to me.Doug

Why waste good money on good material. All mine were made from waste cardboard boxes.Warren
