- Hello everyone! I have a question to ask, and I hope I don't get
- rocket-fumed for it. I just captured the FAQ, and will read it
- later on, but so far from what I was able to glance at, it
- maybe doesn't answer it.
-
- We are a Montreal-based amateur club building experimental rockets.
- Our first one was 16kg, just over 5'. We are currently working on
- a second one which should reach around 26kg, 8', complete with its
- own inboard computer and all the hooplas. The problem is this :
- the only clubs that we _know_ of that also make these kind of rockets
- are in Europe. Last year we had to fly oversea just to launch our
- rocket (using a French booster, too). Problem is this : it's not
- very practical for us, and *I* couldn't go cuz the travel fares were
- way too steep for me. So I'm looking for people, addresses, anything,
- anyone.. there has to be other clubs like us in North America! If
- you know of a place, if the place is you, or if you know there is
- another, better suited newsgroup than this one, please let me know.
-
- If you just have questions about our group, what we do, how we do it,
- and so forth, then I'll be happy to answer you.
-
- Thank you for your time,
-
