CGN Members Certify at Tripoli WA's Inaugural Launch
What a weekend it was for Tripoli
Western Australia's Inaugural Launch and what a weekend
it was too for a couple of CGN members who managed successful
Level 1 Certification launches.
kwhopper
Flying his Aerotech
HV Arcas on a H165R,
kwhopper saw his bird ascend to about 2000' where
his motor ejection deployed the bright yellow
chute for its descent to terra firma.
Result: Level 1 sheet signed off... Grins all
round
FBD
A sexy man deserves a sexy rocket and when it
comes to sexy rockets, well, the GLR
Talon 2 is what naturally comes
to mind.
Sporting a H165R,
FBD's 2-Pac Pearl White finished Talon soared
unflinchingly vertical to about 1900' where it
spewed forth its laundry and lazily made its Sunday
afternoon descent back towards earth to land about
200' from the pad.
Making some wierd pelvic jerking motions, FBD
came out with "Yeah... Alright little doggy."
MH
Also getting his Tripoli Level 1 Cert was MH
with his AMRAAM2
on a H73J.
Just because he ain't CGN doesn't mean we can't
give him kudos for his successful flight.
As usual, the engine he chose was a black one
and by gum, don't we love him for it.
It went up, up, up... up. Popped. and came down,
down, down to land gently on the hill. Sweet.
L1 signed off.
