Current George Pike numbers:
As of November 1, 2025
As of October no flights have been posted for the Mile High Club.
Some may have thought we were joking about John making a bigger Mars Lander.
Well John has been collecting parts and began design work.
Word is that it will have a 75mm motor mount and a coffee shop in the lower section.
Stay tuned for more.....
It is rare that we get such fantastic flying conditions as we had in October, as this final aerial shot attests.
November will be the last scheduled launch for 2025, so don't miss it!
Few realize how much work Ken Allen puts in to bring us all of his goodies. And in October Ken put his camera to work for us as well.
So next time you see him, thank him. And buy something too!
Ken Allen nearly finishes packing his truck as the sun sets in October.
