Introduction
ECOF 2000 is a public rocket launch. Everyone is welcome to attend and enjoy the thrill of rocketry with us. We have obtained a 10000' AGL waiver and expect every size of rocket motor, from Micro Maxx to K, to be flown.
Due to equipment limitations, permission to fly rockets weighing more than 15 pounds or with a motor greater than K impulse, must be obtained from Don Wende, the event manager, by July 1st. If your request is granted, you will be required to provide your own launch system.
Range operations will be broadcast on FM 88.1. You may want to bring a portable radio or use your car radio to hear what's going on.
