[BLT] ELkins High School project

[Bud Talbot]

Greetings once again-

We are planning our launch of EHALT-1 (Elkins High Altitude Launch Team) and working on payload construction now. I'm sure I'll be pestering the list with many questions as they arise.

The one BLT that I attended (BLT 18) was launched from Wharton County AIrport. Given my predictions, etc this seems like an appropriate place for our balloon to be launched from. How does one obtain permission to launch from that facility? Did you guys contact the airport manager? One of my students is a pilot, so he is quite familiar with the FAA regs and will handle the NOTAM, etc.

Thanks for the help- myself and the kids appreciate it.
