We had a number of certification attempts that succeeded. They are:

L1 certifications:

• John Norris, NorthCoast Eliminator, H128.
• Isaiah Pullet, PML Small Endeavor, H180
• Alan Buettner, North Coast SA14, H128

• Tom Van Etten, PML Amraam, J350

Some of the truly outstanding flights were:

Monty Bennett returned to Monroe after a few years absence and took the prize for largest motor with his "Bucky" on a K550.

Jack Anderson launched his scratch built Amraam on a J570

Chuck Layton launched his Scotglas Nike Smoke on an I200. I really cool looking rocket

Fig Figner launched a really nice looking scratch built Astrobee D on a long burn I135. Unfortunately recovery of one part was in the water hazard.

Kimberly Harms launched her Community 6 with a cluster of 3 H242s. We don't see many composite clusters of larger motors and this was a nice flight.

Scott Binder launched a number of his designs including his Apache on an I211

Pat Floyd launched his Shadow 3 on an I161 to a very nice dual deployment.

We had quite a few volunteers this month and they were very appreciated! Everyone thanks you for your efforts.
