- Please consider volunteering to work for an hour during the launch to help keep our launch running smoothly.
- You must be qualified to serve as LCO or RSO, but the other positions are available to anyone.
- Launch operations will cease, if there is not sufficient volunteers!
- Public Health precautions in currently effect include:
-
- If you or anyone in your family are sick or may have been exposed to someone who's sick, stay home.
- Consider staying home if you or any family member is at an increased risk of COVID-19 complications.
As always, while a specific waiver altitude and motor limit is expected, field and sky conditions at flight time may dictate restricted operations. Be sure to wear sunscreen, a hat, long pants and long sleeves, closed toe shoes, plenty of water, and always recover rockets with a partner. Watch out for gopher holes, snakes, and other desert hazards when recovering rockets.
We look forward to seeing you at the launch!
