My son Kenneth obtain his Level 1 Jr. last Dec. He is also involved in his
school TARC program. <http://www.rocketcontest.org> www.rocketcontest.org.
The team project exposed him to critical thinking and problem solving. The
best thing was up loading open rock soft ware for rocket design (he worked
with it like it was a video game). www.
<http://www.openrocket.sourceforge.net/> openrocket.sourceforge.net/. With The
TARC program he was able to buy the rocksim program at a discount. Kenneth
enjoys doing the design and getting the parts from Jack .

Subject: [tccrockets] Level 1 certification
My 13yo son and I have been hanging out at a couple launches a year the last
couple years and I think it's time he "progresses" in his knowledge. I thought
perhaps a Level 1 certification would be appropriate.
First - is he old enough?
If so, how would you recommend going about this? What's involved, requirements,
etc? Any tips would be appreciated.
