TRIPOLI Pittsburgh
Launch Report
May 18, 2025
Page 7
Flyers: 12
Flights: 26
While the conditions for rocket flying were less than optimal in May, a good time was had by all (or most). A couple of certification flights and a few oddballs kept the action going.
Rick Shubert and Jeffery Dick give inspection to the L1 after flight as the launch site is disassembled.
If only this guy would get his thumb out of the way.
A drone shot of this gang of slackers closes out the day as people head for the exits (sometimes screaming).
And Ken Allen has to get all of this back into his truck for his trek to the next launch. Ken will return for the TRIPOLI Pittsburgh launch in June.
Thanks Ken!
We are still hoping to get some more grass cutting equipment for the Dragon's Fire Field and will report as progress progresses.
Until then, get ready for June!

Since no one was crazy enough to try for the Mile High club, no numbers were posted at the opening launch in May.
