They do need help, combustion was unsteady, rough and never stabilized.
Recommend cavitating venturis to stabilize M-dot and O/F before celebrating.

They’re in Bishop, California doing a currently small WFNA/something
hypergolic rocket motor and ... need serious help avoiding a BFRC incident
or WFNA burns to staff. Their video had one breathing mask, no skin
protection, many unmasked people in proximity to the WFNA, looked
unplacarded for the WFNA, no awareness that a liquid under pressure could
spray over their berm onto their control console and team..
Ian Garcia, you’re connected in LinkedIn with their lead. So are Denise
Pouchet, Thomas Svitek, Joel Sercel but I don’t think they’re on list.
I want to get responsible safety measures in place over there A) because I
don’t want them hurt but also B) because if they do hurt themselves, OSHA
and CAL-OSHA and FAA all likely to take a harsher look at the amateur and
lower end professionals here and elsewhere. Bad for them bad for the
community.
I reached out on Twitter to a long idle account of theirs and asked fora
LinkedIn connection but if anyone has a direct contact please let me and
them know.
Are any list members in proximity to Bishop? It’s a ways from Mojave and
people whose locations I know.
