Mud.
I was going to say ditches, but mud works.
Mud.
Money causing unnecessary problems due to stupid regulations.
1. Because Tripoli and the NAR collectively don't have enough money to get the ridiculous DOT regulations fixed, forcing people to drive across country with their motors that they can't ship themselves. The gun industry has tons of money to lobby for easier regulations. It is cheaper to ship ammo and only needs ORM-D markings. I would not want to be anywhere near a fire where there are boxes of ammo...
2. HazMat fees that are baseless. How is one J motor more dangerous to ship than 30 packs of C6-5's? Estes motors often become propulsive when the box is in a fire. Composites generally do not. This is based on facts and actual burning of packages in the desert for AeroTech in the early 90's for DOT tests of packaging.
That actually makes me feel a bit sick to look at.
It's more reson to appreciate those that are willing to build something so beautiful and still launch it for everyone to see... good or bad.That actually makes me feel a bit sick to look at.
