Launching today at Hallowell Farm
with the PARA520 club. Here is our crew: Matt, Mike and
Andrea. It's chilly and breezy, but not a bad day for a
launch. As a matter of fact, there will be about 75
launchings today. |

|
|
By the time we
arrived there were already plenty of people there! Looks like Civil
Air Patrol 104 is on hand. |
|
Filling out launch cards. |
John has a rocket as tall as himself. |
|
|
Matt prepares the Astron Alpha. |
Meanwhile, Ken gives a little help with an
igniter hookup. |
|
|
Pads are hot. Round one! |

Partial parachute failure, but all was
well. It landed right near the pads. |
The
saucer takes off! |
|
|
|
...then returns and lands right in front of pad
2! |
|
|
Back at our table, we're too busy watching
other people's rockets to actually prepare our own. |
