Hello!!

[Epoo1973]

Hey, Im jeff from Michigan. Been building rockets on and off for about 30 years.
Wish there was active club local to me but there isn’t, so my girlfriend and I launch at a local park.
I like to get into high powered eventually and finally built my first mid power kit of the Christmas break.
hope to meet some cool people here that share this hobby.

Welcome Jeff, nice building skills. That almost looked like a McDonald Douglas Delta rocket.

I really wish they had a kit of that rocket, I think drf or something like that produced one, apogee sold it for a while, but I missed the train and can’t find one. Thanks for your compliment!,,

I worked for McDonald Douglas for 5 years until the Cold War ended and put an end to aircraft defense manufacturing

Thank you! And yes. It’s about 40 miles from here!

Pinckney isn't horribly far away from us...Michiana Rocketry flies in Three Oaks which is about a 2-3 hour drive and we have a launch this coming Saturday and we fly once a month until April so come on out to check us out.

Jeff from Michigan: The Tripoli web site shows 4 prefectures in the state of Michigan. Michigan Team-1 flies at Alkay Airport near Clio (northwest of Flint) on the third Saturday of the month, March through November. See www.team1.org.

I still have relatives in Brighton and South Lyon. Some others scattered around that area. Haven't been back since 94. In 2024 is my 50th high school reunion. So I'll be there for that.
