My TRA L3 Cert Flight
My TRA L3 certification flight. This is a mostly carbon fiber and fiberglass rocket that is 6.3 inch diameter, 8 feet tall and 37 pounds on the pad loaded with an M-745 long burning Gorilla Rocket Motor. This rocket was flown at the first annual NXRS near Brothers Oregon on July 2nd 2011. Just as I have done with all of my certification flights, I am doing the "1 plus 3" parachute deployment where I use the drogue to pull the bags off of the 3 main parachutes. I am using an L2 Tender Descender tether and release device to prevent the drogue from releasing the mains until 1000 feet above ground level.
