Would you have any idea how much the generic 20# bottle Doug use to sell weighs empty?That's going to depend on temperature, the tank temperature, whether the motor got a full fill, and how long after that the button was pushed. You should weigh the tank before and after if you want that data.

The bottle did have 25lb stamped on it. I had the tank topped off and the 3200cc tank, on the last flight, took 10lbs of nitrous.20# Aluminum Catalina tanks (Doug's) weight about 24.5#.
I like to think rather that hybrids are the silver lining from the lawsuit.I think Contrail only sells 75mm headware now. I guess the lawsuit results is slowly killing hybrids.

The lawsuit rollout was THE reason I bought the Contrail M hardware. Once the lawsuit was settled, I did use it much less. I do have one of their Ms loaded, all I need to do is press and hold the fill switch at the away cell.I think Contrail only sells 75mm headware now.

https://contrailrockets.net/press-release-12-1-2017/ There was a new web site from Contrail with a press release about a new injector design that had been designed by a student, but the rest of the site seems pretty bare. The old Contrail website https://contrailrockets.com/ is still up (though not updated since 2008) and has Paypal tabs for buying the full product line, but I have no idea what happens if you actually try to purchase. Pratt is their only listed dealer and practically everything there is out of stock.I think Contrail only sells 75mm headware now.
Just putting some text on the front page saying that you are still in business and operating would reassure prospective buyers, though it sounds like you have plenty of business already and may not really need any more.The .com website is being updated but getting pictures and descriptions of each part is my responsibility so the web designer can finish the job.
I have received 38 mm and 54 mm hardware and reloads from Contrail in the last year or two. I have 75 mm hardware and reloads about to arrive in the next few days. They are still well and truly in business!I think Contrail only sells 75mm headware now. I guess the lawsuit results is slowly killing hybrids.
