If 6th of March is good for everyone, then go for it! Just FYI, Sunday the 7th would be better for me, as I don't think I'll be able to make it on the 6th. But don't reschedule only for me! <br><br>Ariel<br><br>

Well, this sounds like a go then, we have at least one carload of people<br>
and probably two.<br>
<br>
I explored around on the JPaerospace website and it seems they typically<br>
launch once or twice a year. The most recent was Away 39, 40, 41, 42,<br>
on Sept 26 & 27th, 2009:<br>

It was the chair in space thing they did for Toshiba. Their blog is<br>
very active, they are working towards something but I can't figure out<br>
what it is?!?<br>

Someone should probably look into that MicroTim digital altimeter.<br>
<br>
I found a pretty cool video (ignore sound) that shows some of their<br>
workshop, and their cute "Sky Pup" airplane:<br>

<br>
Anyway, in terms of scheduling, I'd prefer a weekend trip (Saturday or<br>
Sunday), sometime in the next month, unless their next launch is soon.<br>
The 6th of March would be pretty ideal. Does this sound OK to everyone?<br>
Obviously we'll have to coordinate with them as well, but it would be<br>
good to get our ducks in a row before we start that :-)<br>
