Oh yeah, we’re also going to have AMW on site (Rocketry Vendor), Glorias
Diner, Kona Ice, and more.
If you really want to fly at Blackrock come out and get motors on Thursday
- AMW will be here!

Weather at Blackrock looks similar, will be in the 100’s too, one day high
90’s...

Its a little more rough at 4k altitude and
at least we will have Kona Ice and no 2-micron dust .... 😎
It is the start of summer, as I mentioned earlier it is always hot this
time of year.
You can get water or drinks at the Helm store. No extreme camping required!

Weather Underground for Helm shows 111 for Friday! Bring LOTS of water,
shade and sunscreen!
I'll be up at Blackrock for Mudrock, looks like 99 for Friday. Other days
are lower.

On the plus side, air density at 40 deg C is 13% less than at 0 deg C
[104F to 32F]. That's like launching from 5000 feet above sea level in the
winter. So update your sims for less air resistance....
Is there any temperature where the launch will get called off for the
day?

Hey Everyone,
I hope everyone is doing well and getting ready for our launch weekend!
Update:
- This launch is dedicated to James Marino - one of the greatest
rocketeers of all times and an Icon in the hobby.
James was actually nominated LCO Emeritus several times and as one of
the oldest standing members of the club,
his voice will be dearly missed this year as the best launch director
and rocketry mentor any of us ever had.
Make sure you sign up for the T-Shirts as they will have a special
recognition theme for him. By the way, the deadline will be this
Saturday as Rod extended it, please sign up here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZvLujW2k7uI6qDhECWM_yg50ptYT8l2j99jYAZcWQtk/edit?usp=sharing
Prepay - normally, the 3 day weekend is $30 (that's $10/day, same we
charge at our monthly). For those of you who want to get a deal,
simply Paypal $25 to tcc@xxxxxxxxxx, and you will be pre-registered for
the whole weekend! Yep, a $5 savings for prepayment.
While you're there, you can also send your payment for the T-Shirt as
well.
- We will start at 8:30am on Friday June 18th - please sign up for range
duty here and show up on time for range setup:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1A6n91005NWaMK5ape27fTqeW3BXK-T7m1qoldDMnRA8/edit?usp=sharing
- We will have the usual waiver up to 17K all weekend! It is going to be
absolutely gorgeous out there and this will be one of the
greatest flying weekends ever!
- Gloria's Diner - Gloria is going to have a Taco bar for us all on
Saturday afternoon - I'm not sure if anyone has ever had
Gloria's tacos and special Hatch chili, but it is world class - please
sign up for lunch here so we can get a headcount:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aK5HfESozQVGFHMs4Ggd4841ZRfevtQmwFRpcD8paKE/edit?usp=sharing
Question - how many people want to have a night-launch? Normally, we do
Dairy Aire in May and it gets dark at 8 or so. Now it will be getting dark
at 8:30, so if we did a launch, would 9 or 10pm be too late for everyone
on Saturday night?
Thank you very much and more later ....
-James
