About the Million Feet Award
The Million Feet Award celebrates those Tripoli members who have achieved a cumulative altitude of 1,000,000 feet or more. This total can be reached over any number of flights using certified or research motors in configurations ranging from single-stage to complex cluster or multi-stage rockets. All altitudes must be verifiable through proper documentation.
Please join us in congratulating John Clifton on this outstanding accomplishment. His passion and perseverance continue to elevate the spirit of amateur rocketry.
