Rocket launch possible for this weekend

New postby Jared » Thu Mar 04, 2010 10:55 pm

Well I'm going to try and get permission to fly on a previously used field this weekend. I hope it's not too soft as we've had a lot of rain in the past few weeks. It was pretty muddy last time I was there. I'm shooting for Saturday but if that falls through, I'll try Sunday. Weather looks very good Saturday with zero rain chance and low humidity and winds at 7 mph. Sunday looks good too with a difference of 10% rain chance. Temps will be perfect too with highs close to 70 deg.

I'll get some photos if I'm able to go and post them here on the forum.

Well I got in touch with the landowner and it turns out that the field is still a bit marshy. With rain predictions all next week, the weekend looks grim.

We are planning on flying at the Winnsboro field on the 27th and 28th so I think I'm gonna hold out for that one...
