Hi Everyone!
I have been "lurking" around for about a month or so reading the articles and "how to's" and figured it was time to introduce myself to the community that has taught me so much in such a short time!
Anyway, here goes:
I started in rocketry many, many, many moons ago (think late 70's) and have just gotten back into it the past couple of months with my two son's (7 and 11). Our current "fleet" consists of an Estes Metalizer, Estes Rascal and HiJinks set (needed the launch pad etc.) that are currently flying. We have a build que of: an Estes Super Alpha (me), Estes Monarch (oldest son) and an Estes Cosmic Explorer (youngest)
Our/my "to build" que is quite long and includes an Estes Partizon that I look forward to building someday! Just getting back into the hobby and already looking at MPR and HPR certs! *LOL*https://www.rocketryforum.com/images/smilies/21.gif
This is a picture of my very first rocket launch. LOTS of sanding sealer on that build. Didn't last much past that one launch though but it was fun while it lasted!
Anyway, that is all for now. Have some questions that I will post in a separate thread as well, I look forward to the day when I can help impart some knowledge to someone else.
Thanks to EVERYONE here for sharing your thoughts/ideas and build que's with the rest of us!
