The teams from Creekview High in Canton, GA finished fourth and fifth overall at the TARC Finals in The Plains, Virginia.

Creekview Team 2 had a first flight score of just 6.0, putting them in good position for the second flight, but couldn’t quite hit the second flight as well, and ended up with a score of 27, while Team 1 was outside of their landing window with the first flight, but were consistent with altitude and finished with 25.96.

Team 2 from Madison (WI) West High School won the event with a score of 10.0 (8 on the first flight, and 2 on the second flight). They will be going to the Paris International Air Show to compete for the International title.

The goal is to take three large Hens eggs (the number chosen as tribute to the Apollo 11 aniversary!) to as close as possible to the target altitude (which was 856 for the first flight and changed by 25 feet for the second) and return them safely to the ground between 43 and 46 seconds after liftoff.

Congratulations to Creekview High for their efforts this year!
