SE Pennsylvania Rocket Launch - December 5th

[JoeP]

The local high-power model rocket club launches from a field in Ottsville, Bucks County.  Their next launch date is Sunday morning, December 5th:

This is as good an excuse as any to get the Porsche out of the garage on a Sunday morning.  Attached is a picture of one of their larger models.  (Yes, those are real people climbing the rocket with an extension ladder.)

That photo looks like an accident waiting to happen.

Hi Joe,

I may be up for a launch, looks like fun. I used to send a few up in my early days. Let me know if you go.

Dave, I will not know whether I'm going until that morning.  I already made plans in New York that weekend.  I could swing by Ottsville on my way home if I left early on Sunday, but that would be a miracle.

Are Kim Jong Il or Mahmoud Ahmadinejad members of this club?

Don't know if  I want my porsche anywhere near that!
