- No special license is needed in 48 states PROVIDED that launch in accordance
- with the NAR safety code. I think that two remaining states are California
- and either Massachusetts or New Jersey.

- Until the FAA approves the NAR requested change of FAR 101 regulation, a
- FAA waiver is required for each launch of rocket with total impulse of "G"
- or ANY rocket with a liftoff weight greater 1 pound!
