NOVAAR’s Great Meadows site) and can be easily affected by wind speed and
direction, dual-deployment is recommended for all flights that may exceed 2,000
feet AGL. Depending upon field conditions that weekend, sparky motors may
or may not be allowed. Level 1 & 2 Certification flights (<st1:place
w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Tripoli</st1:City></st1:place> or NAR) can be
done with advance notice (please give as much notice as possible). As
always, kids fly for free! Launch fee for adults is $5.00 for the
day. Spectators are also welcome to attend and watch the
activities. We will have a porta-potty on site!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
