MTMA #11 Launch Report, and other stuff
Tod Hilty
Launch report is up on RMR. I won't post it over here, it got rather large..
Please feel free to bend, staple, and spindle as you see fit! <g> As for Sunday, Phil is working on getting the corn out of the western field. He's got about 20 rows out around the perimeter, and doesn't know if the rest will be down by this weekend, as the corn in the center is still too wet. Flying is still most possible tho', as we've still got the field to the east, and given a good westerly, or southerly wind we'd have plenty of room to put some good sized stuff up. Weather for Sunday looks pretty decent at this point, but it's still pretty early to tell. I'm game... can I have a headcount on who else might attend MTMA #12 on Sunday? Thanks! Tod A.

Sunday's Launch
Tod Hilty
Just a quick reminder regarding Sunday's launch at our Pioneer Trail flying
field. Setup is at 9AM, and the range will be open from 10AM to 4PM. Currently, LMR rules apply, but we may have a 4000 foot waiver, if Stan can get it activated. Weather looks good at this point, but if we get a lot of rain between now and Sunday, the launch may be scrubbed, as the field tends to get very swampy with rain. If there is a scrub, it will be announced via email before 8AM Sunday morning, so please check your email before departing for the field. The corn in the eastern field has been removed, and the corn in the western field was in the process of being harvested. I'll be checking the field later today, and will report back its status. For directions to the field, see the MTMA web site at: http://web.raex.com/~markndeb/rockets/mtma/ Tod A. Hilty Hilty Information Systems |

Sunday Launch Update
Tod Hilty
I just checked the field about an hour ago, and _all_ corn is out, so the
field is now the size it was during our June launch. The area that was plowed before is now disked (read, much smoother), and I will be verifying with the landowner that he's not got anything planted there. Weather forcasts are improving, so, at this point, I don't see any scrubs on the horizon. Hope to see everyone Sunday! Tod A. Hilty Hilty Information Systems |

I know it felt like June because it was so warm, but the launch at Pioneer Trail before the corn was planted was actually on April 30! Here's a run-down of launches since MTMA became an official NAR section. - Second Sunday in April we got rained/snowed out at SCFG. - Fifth Sunday in April was the aforementioned launch at Pioneer Trail. - Second Sunday in May was the "I told you so" Mothers' Day launch at SCFG. - Second Sunday in June was the "you're scaring Fifi" launch at SCFG. - Second Sunday in July was canceled due to "field issues". - Fifth Sunday in July was a beautiful day at Pioneer Trail. - Second Sunday in August was canceled due to wet field conditions at Pioneer Trail. - Fourth Sunday in August was when Zeus ran us off of the Pioneer Trail site. - Second Sunday in September we did the Aviation Day display at KSU Airport. - Fourth Sunday in September we got rained out at Pioneer Trail. - Second Sunday in October was canceled due to "field issues" and wet weather. - Fifth Sunday in October was "a rocketeers dream weather day" at SCFG. Weather forcasts are improving, so, at this point, I don't see any scrubs onStill looking good! Hope to see everyone Sunday!I won't be there, but wish you all clear skies and calm winds. -- Mark Recktenwald |

Sunday's Launch
Tod Hilty
Just a quick reminder...
Sunday is the day we change back to EST from DST. Clocks should be set forward an hour as of 2AM Sunday morning. I totally forgot about the change, and thanks to Mark Recktenwald for reminding me, as I would've shown up at the field at 8AM!.. I'll be walking the field later today (looking for Randy's motor casing! :).. and I'll report back field conditions.. Tod |

OK fine!...
Tod Hilty
<blush>
Thank you, all you *wisenheimers*, for reminding me of the actual movement of the "big hand, and the little hand"... I was under the influence of decongestants and was quite clueless at the time that mail was sent.. <vbg> Visted the field today (couldn't find a motor casing Randy), and I probably will be setting up Trigger at the end of the oil well access road, as this will put us roughly in the center of the entire field. Just look for my van out in the field, and you'll know where to go.. Field conditions are fine, and even people with "normal" cars should be able to get to the rangehead... Cya all tomorrow! Tod |

Launch Report
Tod Hilty
Sunday's launch report has just been posted to RMR. I won't spam egroups
with it due to it's size, so if anyone who doesn't monitor RMR would like a copy, email me directly. Oh, BTW, Randy... Larry Graceffo was out in the corn field when he darn near tripped over this cardboard tube sticking straight up out of the ground. Inside the tube was a spiffy 38mm Dr. Rocket casing, and inside the casing, there appears to be the remains of a J350... any idea who it belongs to? <vbg> It's safe, and warm here in the corner of my office...

SCFG & The RC Airplane Club
Chuck Straka <castraka@...>
Hey all,
My step father has recently joined the RC Airplane club that flys at the Summit County Fairgrounds. He mentioned to me last weekend that their newsletter had an article about a rocket club from Medina that has petitioned the SCFG mgt. for rights to fly every weekend in 2001. Now I believe that the RC guys are a little bothered by this prospect and I'm sure it will be a major topic at their club meeting tonight. Have they confused Medina with Mantua (I assume we haven't made this request) or is it TCSB or some other rogue group of rocketeers? Anybody have any idea who this group is? I see no new Ohio NAR or TRA clubs on their respective web pages. Chuck |
