Wing Ding 2001 Day 3

The Wing Ding started bright and early again with a hearty breakfast.  Cadets piled into the vans and departed for Black Hawk Park for a land navigation course.  After the land navigation course C/Capt. Robinson briefed the cadets on a simulated ELT mission they were going on.  After the teams found their objectives the cadets came back to the armory for a quick lunch and got back in the vans to go to the UNI-Dome to launch their rockets.  After the launch cadets returned to the armory for cleanup and all cadets departed for home.  See you at Wing Ding 2002!
