The May Mill Springs launch event was held under blue skies, summer-time temperatures, and mild (finally) but variable winds. A late update regarding a shift in the event’s start time caused inconvenience to some (our apologies); but for those seventeen participants who were able to accommodate the afternoon start, there were good flying conditions to enjoy. We accomplished a total of seventy-one launches. Coyote Rocketry attended with needed rocket supplies and cold refreshments.

Of special interest was Jacob’s beautifully detailed Fliskits Borealis that was flown with a B6-2, then launched again on a C6-3. Kevin had two impressive flights with his 13mm Superoc on a A10-3T, and his 18mm Superoc on a A8-3, each ejecting the parachute at perfect apogee. Jim’s Semroc Sprite flown on A10-3T was also notable as was Katie’s Tiny Bob that was sitting on the launch pad with an A10-3T one moment and gone the next (see Lost & Found). Roman blasted his Estes Green Goblin off the pad with a D12-5, not once but twice.  See these pictures from the event.
