KCAR Launch Report: July 13th, 2002 Fly地巽ry Competition & Sport Launch

Launch date and time: July 13th, 2002, 11:00 AM.
Launch location: Case Farm, Kansas City, MO.

Total impulse expended: 1790 N-s, that’s mid - ‘K’ impulse range (but assumes all motors burned were full in their respective impulse range.) There were three clustered flights (#13, #15, #31), and two very unique air & water flights (#52, #58). There were 20 rocketeers.

If you have pictures taken during this launch please let us know so that they can be posted on the web site. If you can scan them and save them as GIFs or JPGs that would be great. If not, a few of the club members have scanners and can get the pictures into digital format. Send e-mail for details.
