[BA-Rockets] Launch Changes!!!

Marty -

All I can say is "my sympathies." We've been in the same boat with new construction going on adjacent to our launch field. I thought we'd be out of there (either voluntarily or by eviction) long before now.

This is the absolutely worst fun thing to have to do with a rocket club. Every time you think you find a new site, it always falls apart just as its starting to look good...

This seems to be the end of our stay at DeAnza, at
least for the summer.  We cannot launch at DeAnza
without using Lot B, and the construction that will
follow Lot B being re-opened in the Fall will mean
that it will be difficult for us to get the lot held
free of cars.


Alternative sites:  We are looking at three places,
all near to each other and to Sunnyvale.  The sites
are Lockheed-Martin, NASA Ames, and Moffet Field.  In
all cases we are still working to get ourselves to the
people who can say "Yes".
