FAA Notification on Large Model Rockets

Well David, try this on for size, (it's not made up): According to Mr. Frank Jordon at the FAA Regional, NY Center; "the reason for the 24 -48 hour notification requirement, required under Part 101.25, is so if FAA determines a notem is required, there is time to publish. A wavered launch, on the other hand, is different as the notem is published as part of the waver process and is activated when called in the day of the launch and deactivated when called by either FAA, responsible launch individual, or the time expires". If you don't believe this as true, please feel free to call Mr. Jordan @ 718-553-4521. BTW, Mr. Jordon has been very helpful to the clubs in the Mid Atlantic, northern part of the East Coast, and New England areas, providing good information and help in obtaining wavers. I don't know if he had a hand in our latest standing MDRA waver of 17,000', (a 3,000' increase from last year), as I have not talked to Mr. Jordon in well over a year, but several years ago we were lucky to get 10,000' and over the last few years our approved waver alt. limit has steadily gone up.

I see our boy JI is still taking liberties with the truth.. Am I missing anything else, like a good, "just tech jerry posting"?(:-)))

Fred

True.

True.

True.

True.

True.

Congrats.

Too bad you did not cooperate with my efforts for on-site storage and verified proper shipping of motors there with FULL disclosure and transparancy.

The truth is not mutually exclusive from another truth.

Yes?

:)

I agree that people have become to sensitive. I don't feel that I did express my opinion as fact. If I did I didn't intend to. I also get pissed off when people do that.

Where I do disagree with you is where I would be willing to yield to what seems like a reasonable request. If I were asked to do so for some bs reason, the answer is no. I would be willing to be inconvienienced if it is going to help someone in a way that in my opinion makes a difference.

I'm also d>What if the police decided to pull you over for having a rocket in the back

I haven't seen a 'good' 'just tech jerry' posting in literally years. I think 'Tech Jerry' has lost the battle & 'Big Fine Irvine' has taken over.

DOT processed your paperwork and provided full disclosure. Isn't that what you wanted? If you hadn't taken liberties with the truth, we wouldn't be able to call you Big Fine Irvine.

My ATC has me call the control in the area I am flying when I do this Steve.

Hmmm. THEY state they did not.

Huh?

bs according to the asker or the answerer?

hmmm?

If they hadn't processed your paperwork, you wouldn't owe Forty Gran to the Man!! How can you have a fine without paperwork?

Would someone (except you) ask for something that they thought was bs

- assuming it weren't required by FAR 101?

Are you paying attention, even to yourself?

I thought not.

I don't see any of his posts, unless someone else responds.. (:-)

And be a party to JI illegal activities, I don't think so.. You have me to thank for that...(:-)

That and much more, (to come, I wonder??).

I made clear what was needed for my compliance disclosures to commence for full anal probe analysis.

The preconditions never occured as a result of your effort.

I never asked you to "allow" a single motor until AFTER the entire process was installed and blessed by ALL.

That offer still stands unchanged.

So to say you were somehow "protecting the club" is both false and speculative. There was NEVER anything in reality or in process to protect the club "from".

Jerry

jerry, I know it's really, really hard for you, but could you please translate the above post from "Traditional Anal Jerry Speak" to "North American English"? Very few People would ever be expected to comprehend a "dead" language such as what you babble.

If you could.

I thought he would at least have something new to add. I bet if I googled, I could find the same words, said some time ago, in a different post.. Gota love it...(:-)

That's logical, but may violate the letter of the law. The ATC facility responsible for the airspace concerned is frequently not the closest ATC facility.
