Was looking for an article on Nose cones and Came across the 2008 Estes Catalog. Seems like it is posted on their website. Other than the nice cover, nothing new inside. Has anybody else stumbled across this? It is definitely worth a look at the cover though.

In defense of Estes (not that they need it, but there you go), there ARE new rockets in the 2008 catalog when compared to the 2007. They are NOT new to use because they are almost all out, and we got a preview of them long before they were released. If you compare the catalogs, the Interceptor, Interceptor E, Solar Flare, and Mongoose are not in the 2007 catalog. Additionally, the 2-stage Renegade has been redesigned (and is not out yet as far as I know) into the single stage Renegade D. (Presumably as a response to all those who complained that the booster stage plummets like a rock and inevitably breaks on landing!)
