We have postponed our Saturday, April 9th launch until April 16th. This is due to current field conditions and the forecast of rain tonight and rain and snow tomorrow.

Our first launch of 2022 is scheduled for April 9th. This launch will be at our new launch field in the DeKalb/Waterman, Il. area. You can find a link to a map of our new location in the Upcoming Launch area of the home page.

I hope everyone has a Safe, Healthy, and Happy New Year. Lets hope 2022 ends up being a great year for everyone.

Our November 20th launch was our final launch at the Walter Farm / Whiskey Acres. I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you to Jim Walter’s for allowing us to use his field for these last 8 years. We enjoyed our time there and we will truly miss flying at this location. Stay tuned for updates as we work on a new location for our launches out in the DeKalb, Il. area.
