This was finished in November of 2012.
In January '13, we took it to Battle Park for its first flight.
The forecast was excellent. Warm for January, calm winds. Early fog lifting for clear skies.
We arrived early, ready for a full day of rocket fun at its best.
Well, the fog did clear, but the ceiling was about 300' at 10 AM.
At 2:30 it was still at about 700 feet. Small rockets could disappear on a B engine.
The waiver was never called in and we left around three.
Here's the finished product as it sat until today.
