Flight Log - 2018-08-18 - Richard Holmes's Too Square
Flight Date: 2018-08-18
Rocket Name: Too Square
Flyer's Name: Richard Holmes
Motors: C6-3
Launch Site: Syracuse Rocket Club (Weigand's Field)

Next was the first flight of the rocket the Square In the Air came free with, the Too Square.

I had a certain amount of misgivings about launching a green and black rocket on a field with as much high grass as this, but recovery wasn’t a problem; it was within sight near the flight line. (In fact all day the wind was a little heavier than I like, but it was pretty consistent, blowing things parallel to the flight line with rockets often landing close to or over the line, but well downwind of the spectators.) The fluorescent green chute helped, too. Anyway, the Too Square did well on a C6-3.
