Highlights
There are none. This was the sixth launch of Tripoli Montana, and I launched with Andy Meteer. I first flew my Terrier/Sandhawk on a E30-7T. Next was the Arreaux on a G33-7J for a nominal flight. Then Andy flew his Estes Patriot on a four D12-7 cluster for a perfect flight. And then the rains came. It didn't let up until 2pm, and the site was pretty muddy and windy, so we called it a day. And I was going to launch my 7.5-inch Iris on a J570W cluster...
