Lawsuit Filed Over Injuries Suffered at "Large and Dangerous" Rocket Festival
"and to everybody else, stay away from the Tripoli Rockets!" There are two Rocketry Organizations "TRA and NAR" You have to be certified by either one or both. There are 3 levels of certification and so, if you are launching a 300lb. rocket you obviously have to be level 3. Level 3 is the mastery level,you don't just get it, She knew the rules,she broke them. Saying " stay away from the Tripoli Rockets!" Is like saying don't cross the street in front of a car... Yes it is the same thing. She has an "Ambulance Chasing Attorney" who wants to get millions and it is never going to happen.— June 16, 2012 3:40 p.m.
Lawsuit Filed Over Injuries Suffered at "Large and Dangerous" Rocket Festival
A casual person does not just walk out 1500ft to a 300lb.rocket. She went out there prepped the rocket and then rode a 4 wheeler and stopped to watch the launch at 30ft. away. She knew the rules and decided she knew better bottom line. Now she wants to sue. She is only looking for money...— June 16, 2012 3:07 p.m.

"A lawsuit against the Tripoli Rocketry Association, the Rocket Organization of California, and Tripoli San Diego has been filed by Kairee Goodin, who claims she suffered first and second-degree burns to approximately five percent of her body, as well as lacerations to her thighs and legs as the result of standing too close to the launch of a 300-pound, 18-foot-tall model rocket"... Kairee,your an idiot. You must not be certified if you were only 30ft. away...— June 16, 2012 12:28 p.m.
Lawsuit Filed Over Injuries Suffered at "Large and Dangerous" Rocket Festival
You can not list a rocket lunch with Burning man(where everyone is high on drugs) and truck races. For your information rocket launches are handled with precision and signs posted all over the place. If she was only 30ft. away then is her own idiotic fault. If a rocket weighing 300lbs. is being launched then she should have known the rules of safe distance. That is why we have a certification process. Yes this is baseless, and should never have been filed to begin with. Next time you comment on something understand the subject matter first @ Visduh.— June 16, 2012 12:05 p.m.
