If the weather is questionable, we recommend you call ahead before departing to confirm field conditions.
Upon your arrival (at least 10 min prior to your scheduled reservation time), please make yourself comfortable in the airport public terminal building. You might take this opportunity for a restroom stop or to grab a drink or snack from the self-pay snack stand. Or, you can relax a bit and watch the activities on the airfield. If we are not already present in the building then we are probably helping another guest; we will be in shortly to greet you and escort you to the launch site.
