Tripoli San Diego supports all student launch competitions including ARC, SLI, and IREC/SAC.Qualification and test flights are welcomed with one exception, the 2024 SLI payload flight test.
 
The 2024 SLI competition includes a requirement to design a system which ejects a 5-pound payload between 800-400 feet AGL. The payload must be soft-landed without the use of parachutes, streamers, or energetics below 500 feet AGL.The Officers of Tripoli San Diego believe a flight test of this requirement will violate our safety regulations, insurance coverage, and lease with our landowner.Therefore, 

NO FLIGHT TESTS OF  2024 SLI EJECTED PAYLOADS WITHOUT PARACHUTES OR STREAMERS WILL BE ALLOWED.
