Activities

We have launches every month from November through March. We also participate in various STEM activities at our launch field, local schools, and other venues. This year we will again be participating in the October Sky Festival in Oliver Spring, Tennessee on October 19, 2019.

Launches

Launches are now being held at Burman Farms outside Hopkinsville Kentucky. This site is a 3 field complex (smallest of which is 3800’) with access to a building for warming, restroom, and dining. Thank you to Mark Burman, the Burman Family and MC2 member James Hudspeth for their generosity and hospitality! Burman Farms, 2830 Locust Grove Rd, Hopkinsville, KY 42240

HPR

FAA Waiver Information: Our COA application is pending FAA approval, but our plan is to support flights approaching 10,000’. Sparky Motors: It is our intent that all motor types be permitted to fly; however, weather and field conditions may preclude use of any motor that present an unnecessarily high risk of starting a fire. If you plan to pre-load a large motor before traveling to our launch, we recommend that you select something other than a Sparky. The determination about whether or not Sparkies will be flown will be made on the day of the launch based upon the immediate conditions.
