On sunday around noon (give or take an hour), someone launched mid to high powered 2 stage rocket. I think it was a black brant 2 stage, or one that looked like one. I was wondering, b/c that was one awesome flight. Perfect seperation, the second stage took off perfecftly. You couldnt ask for a better flight.

That was a WAC Corporal with Tin Tim Booster.

You do mean this rocket?

Thank you very much Jim. It was nice seeing you again at NERRF. Are you coming to NYPOWER?

 

[patelldp]

The rocket coming down on the chute is my 3" Diameter rocket named "The Goon." It had just flown on a 29-450 I250 WL clone with apogee deploy.

Can't make NYPOWER as I have another commitment in Schenectady that weekend (besides, it's my anniversary weekend! )

Yep, that's one's near the beginning of my photo album (about 20% in). Photo credits please, folks... (it's really all I ask ).

I can't remember is I was trying to get the launch shot and missed, capturing the returning rocket by accident, OR if I was trying to get a recovery photo and that darned rocket boosted through the shot... LOL It *is* an interesting shot though...

It is an interesting shot. I'm not positive, since I think I saw another with a similarly painted V2, but I think the butt end of rocket was my 7.6" V2 on an EX Red Star K800 motor.

Sorry Jim, I was attempting to identify stuff and failed to mention it was your picture.

Dan, not a problem (really) just staying on top of things. I once had almost and entire photo album reproduced on another web site with no credit given so I sometimes get a bit sensitive... Plus it's been HOT around here lately and I'm a bit off my feed... LOL

 

[gregzo]

So Jim...you think it has been HOT here?!?!?!?!?! :eyepop:

YIKES is it ever warm!! Yesterday was the first day I skipped a planned bike ride because of heat. It was just too miserable to do anything.

Great pics Jim!!!

I believe that's my PML Tethys on a vintage Rocketflite H220 Silver Streak. A bit hard to tell but seems to have the right shape and colorings.

Yes , that was yours. I was co-RSO when you brought it up. That was my first silver streak motor to see launched.
Very nice. Great flight.
