Hmmm... it looks like they're trying a high-altitude "rockoon" launch: I know JPA has been attempting that mode for a while; have they ever had a nominal flight yet? (My impression was that JPA's balloon ops were generally more problematical than the rocket firing itself...) -dave w _______________________________________________ ERPS-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.erps.org/mailman/listinfo/erps-list
