Thanks. That’s a frame grab from an iPhone slow motion video taken from the table I was using.

Temperature-corrected the altitude was 259, which is still 9 feet more than the face card says. My TAZZ also went a little higher than the face card said it should just before this.

And don’t be fooled about the launch site. That’s a 40-acre-or-so field that, during warmer weather, is covered with soccer players/goals pretty much all the time. It’s also the only King County (Washington) park where rockets are allowed and the only such facility in the greater Seattle area. Just about every TARC flight in the Seattle area flies from this one site during the winter/early spring.

I just was able to take advantage of it on a Monday in January because I’m retired. It still took me an hour to get there and over an hour and a half to get home in infamous Seattle area traffic.
