[El Cheapo]

What a killer weekend. The kids and I flew a ton of rockets, saw some cool stuff and met a few people, AZRon and mIcahel showed up w/a Loc Cyclotron all the way from the East Coast with his Nephew.

Photos included are mine and the kids' rockets. The full Monti (414 photos) can be found here: https://s247.photobucket.com/albums/gg151/hounddawgracing/Rockets/GHS 2010/?albumview=slideshow

Jon's Starter Set Patriot C6-5. I don't even know how many flights are on this one.

9" square paper plate Halloween Saucer on D12-0. Those are spider webs.

Rubicon, first flight on D12-3. Did not pop a fin on landing.

Kathryn's Mercury Invader "Kat's Meow" on three D12-5's

Kathryn's Estes Fuse that she won in the raffle on a A3-4T

Jonathan's P-Tube Extreme (toilet paper & paper towel tubes) on three C6-0 stage to a D12-5. Another amazing flight.

Kathryn's Poop Tube II on a C6-5. This is flight 30+ for this recycled rocket.

Jon launching the original Poop Tube on an A10-3T

This was a wrecked Big Bertha given to me by a club friend. It was minus two fins and a nose cone. I rolled the cone and cut new fins and realized how much it resembled a Wac Corporal. It soon received a new paint job and name "Wac Bertha" and made it's maiden flight on a C6-5. I also re-gifted it to the fella that gave it to me.

My L1 Scratch Build "Ready for Action" on an H165

My buddy Rick's Successful L3 Attempt on an M something Blue Thunder. This is a dedication rocket to his Father's Military Career. It also bore a pink stripe for a family member lost to breast cancer and a different colored fin for a family member lost to the War in Iraq.

El Cheapo,

Nice flights and pictures. Mulgarath 2 stage was especially impressive. Post pics when it is decaled. Desert flying is great. Slightly harder landings is small price to pay for no trees and clear skies. Cyclotron vid.

The black jack was a great choice to match the flat black paint. It was a great flight. I have pictures of it under chute if you want. I totally spaced when I heard them announcing a Cyclotron not evening registering it was yours.
