Launch Reports
Remember that day you launched that four motor cluster? Nah, me neither. That’s why Jeff Coons (and friends) have this page, to remind us of all the great launches we’ve had!
Mill Springs Launch Report
The June 8th Mill Springs launch saw over 154 rockets (as well as a few saucers, spools, and cones) take to the skies. Interestingly there were 34 B6-4 engines used and 33 C6-5 engines, while the A8-3 only saw 17 launches. Another popular engine was the A3-4T at 22 launches. The most powerful engine was the F27-4R launching Steve Bellio’s Amraam 2 on two flights. There were 98 parachute recoveries, followed by 41 Streamer and a few tumble recoveries and some helicopter nose cones and some gliders. The day saw 2 cluster rockets, a couple of multi-stage launches, video camera, altimeters, 12 drag races, 31 first flights, 10 heads-up alerts, and one payload of an armless lego man… and finally a single french-fry was sent skyward as payload and thought to be still edible upon return.
