Motor classification question was created by jhagan
I am new to CMASS and by this question I am sure it shows. At the bottom of the flight card it states:

G impulse and above: Certification Level: (circle) none 1 2 3 I have read and will abide by waiver: (initials) _______
I have abided by all applicable laws concerning motor acquisition and storage: ______

Does that mean CMASS requires certification to use G impulse motors?

Thaks for the info,

There are a few G motors that are considered high power motors because of high total impulse, propellant weight etc. They\'re the one\'s on this list that have (HP) in front of them. You have to be certified to buy and fly them. You\'re okay on all the others.

Welcome to the club, Rocketmax10. Thanks for asking a question about the Launch Cards.

That reminds me to remind Bill to be sure we have more cards printed for this Saturday\'s launch.

I now return this thread to it\'s previously scheduled topic.

You a clearly more competent than I am because the note got buried on my desk and I forgot until I saw this.

I\'m merely a good supporting player. The true leaders have a good history of proving themselves in all manner of situations, a natural inclination to put others at ease and a well stocked truck to haul the trailer & cover most any contingency that comes up.

Or Ed could be a good president, too. :dry:

So if I give you a truck you\'ll stop voting for me?
