Any other year, or launch, and I'd be scrambling right up to the last
minute. This time, it's 2 weeks out, an I couldn't be MORE READY!!!! 😭😭😭
Rocket is ready (Intimidator 5, aka "Eagle One", on an M1419), Launch pad
is ready, RV reservation ready...
Now it will just gather dust for who-knows how long. Aaaaaargh!!!!
Oh Well! Maybe next year on an "N" or an "O". 😲😲😲

Hi Everyone,
I was hoping to have some good news for today about our October
Skies launch, unfortunately we're going to need to cancel the event this
year (both in Fresno and BRD).
- Fresno "now in the Red" means we're 300% worse than when we shut
down in March - real Hazards still exist.
- Staying in compliance with City and State ordnance means I now
need to operate and manage a HAZMAT team in addition to launch operations.
When you look at the logistics of what's required to run a launch
of this magnitude and also stay in
compliance with COVID safety & social distancing requirements, it's
almost impossible even if I had
the additional volunteers required to pull it off.
Please stay tuned in the months ahead, we're hoping we can have a
Christmas Party and open up early next year.
Thank you all very much for your patience and understanding - stay
safe and hope to see you all soon!
Best regards
-James

Please Stay tuned, there is some discussion of this happening
in Helm if they open up the restrictions
I'd say everyone hang on for another 24hrs before taking
yourself off the list.
Thank you

I’ve replied
twice off-list to jafrado@xxxxxxxxx
mailto:jafrado@xxxxxxxxx to say I cannot attend and ;
should be taken off the log so that someone on the wait
list can take my spot. I haven’t received a reply, so I’m
not sure if my off-list replies are not getting to you or
if there just hasn’t been a reply. So I’m sending this
final reply to the whole list just to be sure it is
getting through and someone else can take my spot and
start making plans.

Hi TCC,
James and all,
We
should also ask at this point for everyone on list to
re-commit if coming, move through the waitlist as
possible so people have time to prepare.
I need
to drop out, just got handed the personal/work combo
schedule problem and can't do this on the October
timing, looking forward to launching at Maddox Dairy.
Blanked
my space #9 on sheet, but will leave it up to you to
process through waitlist and other people who have to
cancel.
Hope
you guys have great conditions!

Subject: [tccrockets] Re: October Skies
Hi Folks,
Since time is of the essence, COVID is still looming,
we have a limited number of attendees,
HUGE interest, we'd like to do the below to make sure
everything is fair and square:
-
If you've not flown at a TCC launch, your name is not
on the sign-in logbook (and therefore won't be on
the waitlist).
-
This launch is intended for TCC regulars; since we're
the only club
that does not charge a yearly membership fee, we will
go by the club
database which means if you signed up for the TCC
Chat after I made
this announcement, you're not going to make the
waitlist.
-
If you have not been to a Blackrock Desert (BRD)
Launch before you should
pass on this launch (there will be minimal services
and very few people
should you get lost or need to find your way).
-
If you are not a flyer, you should not be on the list.
-
Limit for non-fliers, your significant other - no
exceptions
(Rocket families are excluded).
-
Limit for Junior-TRA/NAR - your mentor or ride to the
launch site.
-
People who are only coming for 1-day should NOT be on
the list.
-
People who plan to certify need to contact Gary
Walker, Richard King or myself ASAP
and let us know that this is your intention. If you
plan to come out
on Friday for a cert flight and that's it, this is
not your launch,
we can do that when COVID clears up ...
All this being said, could everyone send me email
off-list so that I can update
the waitlist? There are a few people who are regulars
who would like to come and
they need to make plans. Separately, I need to
maintain my attendance list for
BLM verification.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
Best regards

I was there last weekend for AeroPAC launch.
They gave coordinates. I’ll assume that TCC will be
in the same or similar spot. You just drive to the
coordinates. The area is just so vast and there are
no landmarks. Other than the heat it was
incredible. I’ve never seen so many stars.
It was even easy to see the Neowise comet with
the naked eye. But I was able to get some great
shots with my camera too.

Notes/Answers to Questions
Helm
launch - still not off the table, but no
permission yet and not looking good right
now (the Fresno, Kern, Kings, Madera,
Merced, San Joaquin, Tulare and
Stanislaus counties in California were

infection rates versus 7.5% statewide).
Blackrock Desert launch - permission for
50 people (the Humbolt, Pershing, and
Washoe counties in Nevada currently open)
Place
to camp - yes!
Days:
Thursday Setup, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
Usual
Night Launch on Saturday
Altitude: 100K - Standing
Thanks
everyone - I will have more details on
requirements soon and
keep
everybody apprised as things progress.
Best

I hate to bring this up but I
would sure like to ride with someone
for me to go.
My Honda Fit is 12 plus years
old, it actually broke down a couple
months ago in a round trip attempt to
Arizona and I do not want to risk
that again. I will help pay for gas
(or completely cover the gas of the
party I ride with). I would ask only
to take one small (not large) rocket
project or none at all just to be
there.

Hey Folks,
Assuming we don't
get a break (from COVID) ...
If we had October
Skies at Blackrock this year, how
many people would attend? Limit
would be 50 people ...
Could I get a head
count?
Thanks!
