I have a clear view from my of Pioneer Peak and the wind is almost non-existant. Any dramatic change in the weather aside, I'm calling today's launch a "GO".

Hope to see you out there,

Good Evening All,

We are intending to hold a launch on Saturday, November 29th from noon to 4 pm, weather permitting of course. A "Go/ No Go" call will be made by 9:30 that morning. Attached is a map to our Knik River Launch site; the water that is shown to be blocking the way to the site is not currently there. That said, it is a bit off the road, so bringing out your custom low-rider is not advisable. Hope to see you all out there.

Happy Thanksgiving,

Shawn C.

Hope to see you out there,

Alright Everybody,

Looking out my window this morning, I see that what clouds there are, are way higher than than what we'll likely be flying. There is little to no wind. Temperatures are mild (relatively). Looks like a great day for flying.

Today's launch at the Knik River Sandbar is a GO! Hope to see you out there.

Now if I can just find my motor hardware...

Video of Model Rocket Launches from June 4, 2024 🚀First launch on the video did not go as planned. Nope, but it looks cool. And part of the video might lead to some dizziness.
