Sounds like you have a pretty good day except for that one C11 incident....
I always enjoy reading your launch reports. Thanks.

No complaints. Even that was pretty tame for a CATO. Great field, great weather, great people, and I even enjoyed the contest flying. They were flying again today, but there was no way I could justify another trip to the field, much as I wanted to go.

Carp !!! (sounds fishy). Bill, I was just in Ohio visiting siblings after going to Virginia for the internment of my former Mother-in-law. Got to visit with my daughter, Son-in-law, and granddaughter. Left on Friday morning. Wanted to visit eRockets on the trip, but to insure domestic tranquility, had to head home. Sorry we could not hook up. Owe you lunch - launch would have sufficed.
Read your blog. Was stationed at Wright-Patterson '72-'74, so know where Huber Heights is. Chas

Mike Rohde and I were talking on Saturday about the burger place you and I ate after NARAM. Bench racing our old favorites and that place came up. We have friends who live in that area, and I've suggested Quatman's for dinner on a couple of occasions, but haven't had any takers. That was a burger worth a second visit. You'd have enjoyed E Rockets. It's neat to see all that stuff in one place. They have Tuesday night build sessions that I'm eventually going to get to, but Tuesday is golf night in the spring and summer and I have Maria's SVDP meetings to contend with, but one of these days......

Sounds like a pretty darned good day of flying to me.
Bummer with that cato on the 1340 though.

The 1340 was beautiful. The USR Sniper was the one that CATOd, and it just suffered a broken shock cord.
