GSSS Launch pics

[Lugnut]

Had a pretty good launch day today at the GSSS Launch in NJ, I tried to take more pics this time, so here's what I got. Nice to see Glenn and Fred again and meet some of the other TRFers, so feel free to add captions...

Here's my ill fated Semroc R-2 which I launched on a C6, I either had a rod whip or it didn't stabilize enough for the C (I usually fly it on a B), it cane off went horizontal, and imbedded itself into the ground at a 15' angle, the top 60% of it is totaled. Bummer, I loved that rocket

Forget what this was (snark?) Fly nice off the high power pad

This was Glenns vintage rocket (Explorer?) Nice flight, perfect landing

unknown black rocket plane thingy

A really tall large 3xD18 cluster rocket that flew pretty **** high and a lot of noise. We all enjoyed it

 

[Lugnut]

An Executioner which flew very nice. I have to get me one of those. Nice slow liftoff, on an E I think

 

[Lugnut]

Another one, on the HP pad, nice paint job. This might be one I have the unidentified recovery picture off.

recovery picture of that Snark pictured earlier (if thats what it was)

This was an LOC rocket (name escapes me) that looked like a Jayhawk. Took off flew to the left, and very high, and unfortunately, landed across the field and high in a tree, above the reach of our 50' pole. Shame, was a very nice rocket.

Tough to see the rocket, just looks like a disembodied flame.

Great pics, Lugnut! And yes that was my LTV Scout in action. Also finally got a good launch of my Space Shuttle, the orbiter doesn't fly great but at least didn't crash this time! I got to launch about 8 rockets. All in all a great flying day and was great meeting phil125 and flyer98. Oh and FredT was there too, so that's at least 5 of us TRFers that were there, not too shabby!
