I'll put it next to my yellow star..

I don't like it, but it's probably good-ish.

My 2 cents as well...

 

It appears that there are 2 main points of interest in the rules
revisions...so far.

 

1. Motor ignition methods - As Jack and others have said, pretty cut and dry
as I understand it.  That said, yes, it appears that some existing
electronics that require break/pull wires may need to be phased out.

 

2. Non-HPR (i.e. uninsured persons) on the range/launch area.  -  Perhaps we
could have all HPR fliers openly display their membership cards (TRA or NAR)
at all times on a lanyard or clipped to their short/jacket. Also, we might
designate a Pad Manager or additional RSO's, as we've had at times in the
past, to oversee the actual pad area. This would help clarify just who is in
the area while charges and electronics are being armed.

 

 I think we have been pretty fortunate to have not had any serious incidents
at TCC launches, at least in my memory.  Most times, we have plenty of help
at LCO and RSO and I thank those who do it on a regular and occasional
basis, but as the discussions over the new rules imply, we can always use
more "eyes on" what's happening around us.  

 

Of course these issues will continue to be discussed at future launches and
here on the chat so that all of us are on the same page and understand what
is "OK" and what is not.

 

See you at the next launch!
