My rocket was actually a Soyuz. I'll be uploading some pics and videos from our launch to the club's Facebook page. If anyone has pics or videos of the Scouts launching, please post them--I was too

We had five entries for MTMA Kitbash Contest. They were Bill Berger, Gary Stricker, Mark Recktenwald, John Eck, and Eric Hudnell. Each rocket was built using only the contents of an Estes Sprint XL

One more thing... tomorrow is also the day of the kitbash contest. Bring your kitbashed Sprint XL kit for flying and judging. When the scouts are done, the judging begins! Jeff

Sorry for the late reminder, but tomorrow morning we will be hosting Cub Scout Pack 3269 for their rocket day. They will be first up in the morning so if there are any members who can get to the field

During October our regular launches will also be sanctioned by the National Association of Rocketry as NRC Launches. "NRC" means, National Rocketry Competition. It's kind of like an ongoing National

I plan on offering brand-new paperback copies of G. Harry Stine's, Handbook of Model Rocketry, 7th edition, for sale at all upcoming launches. Price is at my cost - $13.87. I am not making any

The 300-lb braided kevlar line that I installed in my Estes Fat Boy (the original BT-80 version) has held up well since 2002 or so. It's pretty thin stuff so it's not like I'm coiling up a rope

No rush. Don't know when I'll be making it back up again any ways.
