Should I contact the FAA Flight Service. They can post a NOTAM "Note To Airmen". We don't want to hit any inbound or outbound flights into PIT

I have 24 kits. The kit is called the Wizard by Estes. It goes 1600 feet. We might need to contact the FAA.
Anyone who wants to build on can.

The kit and motor combination you are using does not require any NOTAM or FAA notification. I do encourage you to review and follow the NAR safety code, and be a good role model to the kids when flying!

I also will suggest that if flying with C's, you probably want to use streamers instead of chutes for a quick decent. 1,600 feet up is a long way up when the lightweight rocket starts drifting.

Dan, are you going to be joining us?
One of our repeat offenders used to do school seminars for schools before his retirement. He has always taken on the role as launch master and done a great job making sure everything is safe.

I realized an important thing... You do not need to stop at the office. Just follow the signs down to the lake and we will get you parked.
