I think it depends a bit ;0) Sandman, from TRF, made it over to Big EARS and kept moaning we were all to busy chatting and shopping instead of flying ;0)). He seemed to enjoy himself in the end though. We did take a while to get going on the Saturday. It was the first time a lot of folks had met up since this flying season started so there was a fair bit of catching up to do. It was a superb launch with splendid weather, lots of wonderful flights and the best of rocketry company.

Blokes and ladies!

I've been going through my photos for my launch report (its taken me all afternoon and evening to do Saturday alone!) -things didn't really get cooking on Saturday (in terms of flights) until 5:30PM, with a load of great flights between then and 8PM when the range closed!

It has been said that the UK way of things is such, launching before lunctime deserves some recognition ;)

As Mike said, a lot of people hadn't met up yet this year, and being the first day of a 2-day event a lot of people either arrived later, were working on things to fly, or were just generally slack because there's another day left to fly ;)

Damian Burrin did launch very early on Sunday, and things were a bit quicker getting going on the second day.

Randy, you'll have to come to a LARF launch over here - the local beer* & quality of subsequent alien abduction experience is much better :-)

Only Saturday so far, with the looming of exams I feel the need to do some work! I hope that Sunday's will be online by the end of the weekend.

BTW did anyone get video of Ben's K1100 or Gary's K660 flight? I'd like to see video of each of those a lot! (Oh and if anyone got the launch and subsequent crash of my ETV2 on film I would appreciate a copy :) )

Thanks,

If we can ever pull it off, we'll be happy just to me the group and if we fly something, then that will be ok too.

Opps, my bad, should have read "meet the group." : )

We were discussing it last night and Verna says she doesn't mind if the whole trip revolves around rockets. I figured she'd want to see a few of the sights and rockets would be a side trip but as it turns out, it's the other way 'round.

Now I have to start planning for it and saving a few quid. ; )

Gotta wonder what they'd think of an Alabama Cherokee, in King Arthur's Court.... you all. ; ) (You do have grits & "injun batter" over there, right?
