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.

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 darkat 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
