I didn't think about sending this to you guys because there is no way I can get
product to you before the sale ends. However the only requirement is that you
pay for the product before 12/31/09. So if you want something let me know and we
can work out how to get payment made. I'm good for it as soon as I get back from
Hawaii on your guys money (wait, did I say that out loud?). :-)
My stock is pretty full so if you want something let me know. If I don't have it
I can possibly get it from Chad or if I don't have anything you need you can
probably order direct from Chad as well.
I have a bunch of:
29mm AT
38mm AT
29mm and 38mm CTI
and a lower quantity of 54mm CTI. I think I may have 1 54mm AT reload left.
Jeff
*******************************************************
Here is the message from Chad:
Just finished unpacking a huge order from AT.
I have some of the AT for AMW reloads on hand. 54/2550 (K750W and K1750R) and
75/7600 (M1450W and M3500R) reloads are available. I also have a nice stock of
54mm AT reloads.
There are two new END BURNER reloads available now. The I49N-P (38/360) and the
I59N-P (38/480).
35% off - Aerotech Hobby Line Hardware, Reloads & Single Use Motors
25% off - Aerotech High Power Hardware & Reloads
20% off - CTI/ Pro-X Hardware & Reloads
(Must be paid for before the end of the year to qualify).

I agree Elvin. I would like to make another suggestion as well. I thought of this several days ago but haven't had much time to post on the group. As long as we are thinking about a memorial launch, I think it should include Linda as well. My appologies to Elvin for not thinking of this sooner. A combined memorial launch for Linda and Nancy.
Is that ok with you Elvin? This would give plenty of time for special projects to be flown in memorial to these two fine ladies.

Jim B,
My thought on the memorial launch would be to have it in May. The 3 day launch seems to draw our largest group of people.

I would suggest that we do this when the weather is more predictable. It would be sad to put a lot of energy and planning into a launch that has a more probable chance of being snowed out.

Seems like something should be done in memory of a rocket supporter who is no
longer with us. I might be able to come in January but that's a big unknown

Reinier,
I only had the pleasure of meeting you and your wife one time but I could tell
she enjoyed being there with you. I am so sorry that this happened. I have no
idea how I would make things work without my wife.
You are always welcome at AARG and if you need a place to stay just let me know.
Thanks for posting this.

Rocketters We need everyone to reset their countdown clock's to T minus 152 hours and 40 min. The Asa field is a mud bog, we are going to reschedule for Nov. 28 (9 am to 5:30 pm) Saturday night launch Sunday (9 am to 4 pm)
Dont forget to light them up!

Marlin:
If Asa's getting anything like the pounding Austin is getting, there's no way there can be a launch tomorrow.
Thanks for considering a launch the Saturday and Sunday after Thanksgiving. That might be a good break from company.

Based on the weather forcast for the area, it
does show a rain out, however, depends on the amount that we actually get. Tomorrow afternoon (unless it is a total wash) I will go to the field and put a foot in the mud, I mean dirt and let everyone know if it is a GO OR NO GO.
We will definitely try again for Sat & Sun, Nov. 28-29.

For those who may not have accessed the Composites group for a while, Mick, the
group moderator and long-time composites guru, is having some health problems
and is liquidating his large inventory of various materials, fixtures, and
tooling. If you have an interest, please check the group. If nothing else,
wish Mick a speedy recovery. Again, just an FYI.
Thanks much,

Just saw this this morning.
54/1280 case - I have nothing for that one.
54/1706 case - I have the K185 but I'm pretty sure I do not have the correct
forward closure for it. That is a shippable part so it won't be a big deal to
get the correct one to you quickly. Had you given me some notice I would have
had it on hand ready to go.
