November Mill Springs Launch Report

Published on November 9, 2019

The November 9th Mill Springs Launch event began with Jorge supporting a group of Cub Scouts on a day that started out cold and a bit windy.  As the club members began arriving a few hours later, the day became more comfortable, the winds died down and by the end of the event we had a total of fifty-eight participants who accomplished 161 launches.

There were many beautiful flights piercing a cloudless blue sky.  Kevin Scholberg launched some of his amazing creations, the most impressive being the scratch-built Halloween Hellraiser on a two D12 cluster that was brought back safely using streaming entrails – quite a sight.  Roy Green had a good flight of his Estes Jupiter-C on a C6 and Chris’ Aurora Borealis was very spectacular on a B6.

The pace of launches increased during the final hours of the event as so many came out to enjoy a beautiful Fall afternoon.  [Some photos from the event]
