Model Rocketry Program
What is the Model Rocketry Program, and how does it work?

Civil Air Patrol's Model Rocketry program is an achievement program for cadets interested in the science, technology, and flight of model rockets. The guide (available below) builds on the foundation of Aerospace Dimensions, Module 4: "Rockets," to introduce cadets to the hobby and science of model rocketry. The guide begins with simple alternative-power models and progressively challenges cadets with more advanced models.
Cadets who complete the written and performance requirements for each of the three stages described in this text, as certified by their unit commander, will be awarded the Cadet Model Rocketry Badge. For more details about the requirements for the model rocketry badge, see CAPR 50-20.
If you are interested in participating in this program, look for upcoming Model Rocketry events in the Squadron News and Calendar sections, and for the annual Aerospace Education Weekend.
