He makes his altimeters go off on the pad for fun.
His flight card says only, Level 4

He hires teenage teams to set off altimeters on the pad - so he can demonstrate how he would not do it.

You might try to get even, but age, experience, and treachery will win every time.

Some can so look over your shoulder at all times.

Don't have to. We'll trip y'all with our canes. Besides you can't run very fast- there's always one of us in front of you ( just like on the road), and we hunt in packs!

He can re-track a derailed thread on TRF.
He is the most interesting man in the world.

He puts GPS receivers in his rockets and tells the rockets where to land.....
He's the only one who has ever dated Multitronix's "Kate".....

His 1/2A Parachute Duration model from NARAM 1 is still in orbit.
The only egglofter he ever lost spawned an award winning breed of heritage chickens.
Every one of his launches is heads-up, because when he launches, you watch.
He speaks with such gravitas that no one can launch within 200 feet.
He pours the finest 38mm motor you've ever burned and the best martini you've ever sipped. They are the same recipe.

His rockets execute apogee and main events via meaningful glances and a wave of his hand instead of electronics.

He was able to prove that NASA could have brought down the entire Saturn V's first stage safely using only a single stock Estes 12" Parachute, and be able to reuse the entire assembly. NASA had to refuse due to contractual obligations with the manufacturers.
