The Sunbird is the final flyable rocket from my Ebay haul. This one just needed a fin replaced, and unbeknownst to me, the shock cord replaced. I pulled on it as hard as I could and it didn't break, so I decided to risk it. The two pieces almost collided on the way down, the body riding a corkscrew path and the nose cone and streamer falling straight down. Couldn't have been more than a couple feet apart just before they landed. Probably retired now, but at least I flew it.
