Getting Helium for August 2023 Test Flights #54

Open profFisher opened 1 year ago

profFisher commented 1 year ago

Need to figure out where we get helium, where we are going to store tanks, how we are going to transport helium tanks to launch site for July test flight

Update on this: I have contact information for the WVU STEAM Group at Jackson's Mill. I know that location was discussed. We have WVU employees that run it so could definitely be a solid option for helium delivery and launch.

I added an action for flight predictions to be generated for flying out of Jackson's Mill. I asked Lucas to generate them

Cool. Candy and I ran them also. They are good, but there is a weird, restricted airspace that they go through. It’s says the restriction is Saturday and Sunday 0630 and included a radio frequency. Thinking it’s maybe just local people? Idk- we will have to figure it out.

I was told there is an air strip on site/jackson mill with a pavilion that we will have access to. The Fire Academy uses the air strip and for July 15th it is all ours. POC: -Samantha Thomas Administrative Associate Jackson's Mill (304)-269-5100 office (304)-517-3595 cell
