Freedom Launch 2009 - Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Sep 5, 6, & 7. We are planning a night launch on Sunday, so that fliers can enjoy eating out on Saturday since many local restaurants are closed on Sunday. Monday is a Tripoli Research day only. The entire event is under Tripoli rules.
Flight Fees are $10.00 per day, $25.00 for all 3 days for Non Members.
$5.00 per day for club members.
Range Setup is planned for Friday evening at 6:00 PM.
A V-2 Mass Launch is planned for Monday from 11:00 to 12:00, we will fly the Low Power, then Mid Power, then High Power, then the Away Cell. All recovery will await the completion of all the V-2 Flights.
Due to the combined Impulse of Burl's Big V-2, observers will need to retreat from the flight line to one Pivot Wheel Track to the North before the Big V-2 is launched.
Plan to sign up for 2 hour shifts as RSO, LCO, and Pad Manager and reply who will be available for range set-up and take-down. You will earn a Freedom Launch Crew T-Shirt for working two or more 2-hour shifts or for working range set-up or for working range take-down, one Crew Shirt per person.
Bring Shade, sunscreen and plenty to drink.
