A cloudy morning started with a just a few launches between the rain drops, but the weather slowly improved and by mid-morning blue skies began to appear and activity on the launch pads picked up.  There were a total of 60 launches made by 26 participants including members from the Georgia Perimeter College Space Club.  There were twenty rockets being flown for the first time; six of these were scratch built.  We saw our first 3D printed rocket engineered by Denmark Hodges that completed two successful launches with an onboard GoPro HERO camera on Aerotech E28 motors (very extraordinary). Steve Bellio successfully launched and recovered four rockets that completed six total launches powered by everything from E15-4W to G77-4R.

Otherwise the B6-4 was the most often used motor throughout the day with twelve total launches followed by the D12-5 and B4-4 with six launches each.  Oliver Long was the most active participant with a total of fourteen launches including a return of his Estes Leviathan sent skyward on an E16-6 and successfully recovered.

So what began as a dreary start became an enjoyable outing with visitors arriving throughout the day to enjoy the October skies and many impressive flights.
