"Cert Day" Saturday February 28 2004

After watching the weather reports all week saying it may rain we had clear skies most of the day but the wind was a little tricky.

"Dangerous Dan" McCullough's Level 3 Flight.

Dan made his level 3 flight with his ???? on a AeroTech 1315 M Motor. With 6 Tripli TAP's on hand he had no problem with witnesses for a very nice flight. I am also playing around with video. Check out the video I took of this flight. It's not great but I am getting better!  937k Dan's Level 3.wmv

 

Here is a video of Mike's launch.

"EX Day" Sunday February 29 2004

 

Sunday was better than we could hope for after the weather reports all week.  Scattered clouds and low winds made for an excellent day for flying.
