Thanks for taking one for the group Rick.. Appreciate it.
 
We had a spike in student infections early on, but they're doing daily testing, and it's settled down a bit now:
[ https://ready.vt.edu/dashboard.html ]( https://ready.vt.edu/dashboard.html )
 
But we're taking no chances, even outside and are enforcing full distancing, and PPE requirements.
 
Speaking of the launch.. it's been wet all week, and the rain has let us tonight, so I imagine we may be able to fly sparkies tomorrow. We'll have to make a call tomorrow when we inspect the site. 
 
The weather looks overcast.. but amaaazzzingg! In the 60s-70s.. no rain, 1-2mph winds!  YES!!!
 
We're meeting at 9am for setup.. we could use a hand.
 
You guys ready to fly?!?!

Thank you for holding on to the Mtrs for me.

Everyone safe I'm going to wait , till the levels go down or a vaccine.

Speaking of motors, I still have two CTI H motors (H123 and H125) that belong to Rick Lavassaur.  Not sure if he's on this mailing list or not but he ordered them with the last group order and the launch was cancelled so he never picked them up.  Does anybody know if he'll be there this weekend?

 I expect to be there for at least a couple of hours.  I don't have a single use, but if it's not a high risk flight (high wind and/or high alt), I've got an H229-14 White Thunder CTI and a case he or she may borrow, and they're as close to a zero assembly as you can get.

Looking to help out 2 people with a NAR L2 certification and a motor for an L1 certification.
 - Will there be any NAR level 2 or level 3 people attending the launch on Saturday?  Please let me know by noon Friday.
 - A VT student is looking for a 38mm Aerotech H219T-14A (disposable) motor for his L1 certification flight.  Does any one have one they are willing to sell?
Thanks
Bob
