My Estes collection

I hardly ever post, but thought I should share my Estes collection.........
Ernie

Wow! Nice collection!

Thanks

Heres the pro series

Nice looking set of rockets you've got there. Do you ever find the time to fly them? They all look so pristine.

David

I fly them usually right after I build them cause I live right next to a desert (El Paso, Tx) if I were to zoom in you would be able to see the touch ups, scratches,etc...... Im like the vip customer at hobby lobby for engines with that 40% coupon on your phone

Really nice collection. Thanks for posting.

VERY nice buncha rockets you got there! I think i see a Chuter 2 in there....just built one myself, hope to send it up tomorrow!
El Paso eh? I was born in Ft Hood.....ARMY BRAT!!

Too many is NEVER enough when it comes to rockets. Thanks for taking the time and effort to post the pics. It's always an adrenaline rush to see collections......and taken care of just sweetns the pot. Well done Sir!

Very nice. Heck of a fleet and nice paint jobs to boot! You may want to consider posting them in the Gallery. It could use some new rockets. Heck, there's even a "Post Your Fleet" gallery as well.

Great Looking fleet!
Funny how our Fleets just seem to keep getting bigger

The correct answer to how many rockets is the correct number to have is N+1, where N = the number of rockets currently in your fleet.

Now if I could only figure out how my my equation is closer to N+15

El Paso is fun for the Fact that Ft. Bliss is there and has the Air Defense Artillery Museum.
I got to go there when I was passing through Ft. Bliss. to go on my first Deployment. It's awesome!!

Awesome Fleet too!

Mercury Redstone (3 or 4 total, I forget, redshifted to "E" engines taking the place of the unfinished originals)

I see you have multiples of some of the kits. Are they just favorites, or is it because of family members?
