What did I do now!?! Do I have to go in to time-out?

Wow...24 CRLIP's at once! (How the heck do you pronounce that?! Maybe "Kra-Lip" ?) That oughta be really cool! Lotsa pics, please!

Prounounced "CLIP", the "R" is silent... (don't you know *nuttin*? )

I was thinking the same thing when i put that thing up LOL

 

[jetra2]

CLIP?! Nah, I don't think so. If ya did it *that* way, the name of the rocket would be, "Caution: Launch In Progress." That just doesn't have the same ring as, "Kra-Lip!"

Jim, do you realize you are less than five posts away from THREE THOUSAND?! I've got a LONG way to go yet...

The mass launch of Caution: Rocket Launch in Progress Rockets was held at the March 6th SEARS 572 launch in Headland AL. We had 22 rockets on the 24 rod pad. It took two salvos; 13 and then 9 rockets as there was a malfunction of one bank of the ignition system. The initial set of pictures is at https://sears572.com/gallery/cautionrocket

Jim Flis donated a FlisKit Acme Spitfire. We had a raffle among the mass launch partipants and Chase Hansel of Lynn Haven won the kit.

We had some variation in the color shemes and later in the day a two stage caution rocket appeared.

We had full particpation of the club in this project including TARC students. We did enjoy building and flying the Caution. It is a great product Jim thanks for providing it as a free download.
