FLIGHT CALENDAR FOR 2008
|
From Perth, travel to Toodyay. Continue straight through Toodyay, towards Bolgart, along the Toodyay-BindiBindi Road, for approximately 15KM. Turn right at Chatcup Rd. The launch site has moved a few paddocks down the road. The launch site is now on the corner of Lemming and Chatcup road - it's the paddock with the ruins on it. There will be signs from the old launch site directing folks to the new site. We don't fly if it's raining, but having said that, if it's raining in Perth, that doesn't mean it's raining in Toodyay. Here's a link to the BOM where you will find a rain radar which shows you where it's raining and how heavy the rain is. |
If the 1st launch date is cancelled due to weather it will automatically fall to the following weekend regardless of public holidays etc. If the re scheduled launch date is cancelled due to weather again then the next scheduled launch date on the calendar will take effect.All flying days are on a Sunday and start at 9:30am until 4:30pm. Please call Kevin on 9354-1673 or Phillip on mob: 0418 917 410 or ph: 9390 1497 before you drive all the way out to Toodyay! You don't want to drive all the way out there to find out the launch has been canceled! Also note there are no shops near by, so make sure you bring your own lunch and drinks. There is a porta potty at the site. And please make sure you take your rubbish home with you (thanks!). Also please note that there is now a $2 flying fee per launch (a days worth of launching - not per flight). Last minute flight cancelations are often posted on the home page of this site or on the Australian Rocketry Association forum. Guests, spectators and media are encouraged to attend all launches. :-)
