Bill, I saw your write-up on the Condor clone on EMRR...very cool. Now I *know* I need to do this one.
Thanks. That may have been my very first attempt at a review, and it shows. Back then I had no idea how to include pictures, but now that I've crawled out of the stone age and into the '90's, that's no longer a problem.
I meant to list the rest of my fleet circa 1977, but got distracted here at work, so:
Beta (my first rocket)
Condor
Andromeda (currently on the clone bench)
Alpha (my first one flight wonder)
Odyssey
Satellite Interceptor (another favorite)
X-Ray
Mercury Redstone
Wizard (another one flight wonder)
X-Wing (the only original I still have left)
Gooneybird Cloudhopper (found it for $.99)
Centuri Mini-Dactyl (also under a buck, but I never built it)
I also had the battered hulk of a friend's Centuri E.S.S. Raven that got caught in a tree and soaked, but I never rescued the nose cone. I doubt that it would have flown anyway. It was in pretty rough shape by the time I got it out of the tree.
