    I used to tell Mom, "...I want to fly rockets when I grow up!"

    She said, "Make up your mind, you can't do both!"

    Considering the shape of the box when it arrived, it's surprising that this one ever flew.



    Despite the horrendous shape of the box, all that was wrong with the kit was a gouged nose cone.







    Ubfortunately it landed in a lake on the second flight and has since been mercifully retired.
