Sorry folks - rained out! We tried to get a few rockets off
this morning and the sky opened up and soaked us!

Apologies to Nicole and the Accounting Group -
she will make arrangements for the group to fly
at the Oct 14 or 27 launch.

Team Punk Rocket Science had a successful ejection
test of the Y-Wing and will be putting the finishing
touches on that monster. Give Todd Mullin a call
if you want to help out!

Andy and the gang are outr in Santee working on the
X-Wing - if you need something to do on a rainy day
GET OUT THERE AND BUILD!

I'm got the equipment van at my house and inventoring
the status of all the pads and electronics. Come on over and
bring your solder irons!

See ya at Plaster Blaster 6!

PLAN OF ACTION FOR SEPT 22

Weather:

I will make a determination at 7:30 am about rain conditions - if they seem
minimal or passing through I will go to the field and start setting up at 8 am
- if it is not raining.

If it is pouring buckets - That's all folks!

After Launch Projects:

X-Wing

If you have not been out to Andy Worner's to see/help slave over the X-wing
you are missing one of the coolest rockets ever built.

There is a LOT of work to still do to get this beauty to flying status so get on
out to Santee and lend a hand!

Plaster Blaster Equipment Check

I have the equipment trailer at my house and will start the PB6 equipment
check tomorrow after the launch. I can use 3 or 4 bodies (and at least 2 that
can solder leads) to clear the trailer and check all the gear for function and
safety

I live right up the hill from Fiesta Island off of Milton. Call me if you need
directions:

six one nine - two oh six - six nine oh nine

Lock and load team! We're getting down to the wire and there's lots to be
done!
