Where are the pictures from LDRS?

Ok its time to cough them up, videos and all. There are a few posted but not nearly enough. Don't you guys know there are some of us that couldn't go and have to live vicariously through you! Don't make me beg. And I know there are more pics of Kari, and yet ????

You know, I've been wondering the same thing. I've been looking for coverage since the first day......I've found bits on The Original Rocket Dungeon, but no pics & videos like any other major launch. https://rocketdungeon.blogspot.com/

One guy had written trying to clarify whether The Science Channel had exclusive rights to pics/ videos. It would seem like North Korea if they did.

I came across a couple things on youtube, but would have expected waaay more.

If the LaPanse's (cjl and his father) were there they usually have some amazing pics. Don't remember where they post though.

Chris was there, Ray was not, so no pictures from Ray.

I took some pictures, but because Neil McGilvray from Rockets wasn't able to attend, I promised to send all of mine to them. Thus, they'll be put up on their website, rather than me posting them elsewhere.

David Reese typically has some great shots too.

David was there, but I didn't see a camera in his hands, so I suspect he wasn't taking any. May have just been timing when I saw him, too.

It's vicariously, not precariously, unless you meant something else.... Did someone forget to invite the photographers? You mean Nadine wasn't there, or even Mark Canepa? I was wondering the same thing....... (and I didn't mean to offend)

Here's a few pics in no particular order...

I've put a few more on my Facebook page (they're public).

And a few more...

And finally...

lol - when pigs fly.

Did the huge V2 have a successful recovery? I saw a video that looked like there were some problems.

The chute looked a bit fouled and it landed in the parking area, but it didn't look as if it had any significant damage.

That is great. It is a beautiful build.

I'm still going through mine. I didn't get back to Virginia until late Thursday, and have been busy ever since. In the meantime, here's one of my Mercury Redstone. Not gonna lie, I'm particularly proud of this one.

Here's a video that my sister took of my rocket "The Chi-Town Hustler", named in honor of Tim Lehr, who is indeed "The Chi-Town Hustler", that's his Chicago Rocket Mafia name It's actually my rocket Carbon Nightmare 2.5 that I renamed on the spot as I belived that the name Carbon Nightmare was cursed. It flew on the new pro 75 3 grain L3200 Vmax! This new motor is really awesome! I don't know how high or fast it went yet as it's sitting in a farmer's living room waiting to be picked up.:lol:

You guys should buy, and fly this motor..........it's pretty cool, and it's only $170! Definately worth the bang for it's buck! The video doesn't do it justice!

Here are a bunch of pictures from LDRS 31 - - keep in mind, they are not edited for the forum with lots of launch pics as well as the pics of the local Omish crowd and of course shots of Kari Byron from Mythbusters... You may want to click through the photos from end to beginning. For some reason, Photobucket loaded them in reverse order.

Also, here are a few cool videos:
