Another North Hill clamp to start the day. It appeared to be clearing late
morning and the toys were taken out of the box. The first launch went into cloud
at 700ft with some stratus below that. We practised launch failures for a
while and took lunch. The brisk southerly got worse with strong gusts. Guy and
John made an inspection after lunch – and as we could barely stand at the launch
point we called it a day.
Students were debriefed, ground helpers Nick H , Roy and Dick St thanked and we all went home
(except Syiffa who wanted to use her tent one last time!) happy but disappointed
with the weather. -J Si (ed:And a big thank you to Guy and John Si.)
