Flight/Launch Criteria
Launches are held on the second Sunday of most months. Except for all day launches, launches start at 1:00p.m.CT. Our launch site is located in Leonard, Oklahoma. Approximately 1 mile east of the Leonard High school. Our waiver is 9,000 FT MSL. Launch fees are:

Motors 1/4A through G - FREE!
Motors H and above - $5.00 for Tulsa Rocketry members and $10.00 for non-members.

Anyone wishing to fly HIGH POWER (H and above) must be a member of Tripoli or NAR. NO EXCEPTIONS! You must provide proof (ie: Membership Card). Children accompanied by a parent may launch for free.

Note: Our launch site is a working sod farm. We have a good working relationship with the land owner. We are careful about where we park and drive on the site and we are careful to pick up after ourselves. Therefore, use of the field by non-members at times other than an official club launch is not permitted.
