good message, Mike – I tracked down the five guys who are veterans in my office this morning. All the branches of the services are represented in our shop… and I’d say they are absolutely as good of employees as…   Read more»

I’ll second that sentiment. I am Blessed to have had the opportunities to live in the land of the Free and the Brave. Proudly served and huge thanks to everyone that has, does or did.

I’d be willing to trade some rocketry gear for a PE-860 with a 500Gig drive. PM me or call me.

Ed, I fly maybe once or twice a year at best lately and haven’t flown anything under a K or L in 3 or 4 years. LOTS of stuff I just don’t see a use for. I will be keeping…   Read more»

Warren,Say it isn’t so! You can’t sell all your stuff. Stay away from the epoxy to avoid the allergies, but stick to the flying!Ed

The meeting date is as Joe says. My bad for not correcting it months ago. As I said at the last annual meeting, we NEED a new webmaster to manage the website.

My bad for posting in the wrong forum. Warren, any way you could move this to a more appropriate slot?When will the meeting dates be decided?Thanks – J

Just a reminder that my wife will NOT be catering the annual meeting this year. We felt after 4 years that it was time for someone else to take on the task.On a secondary note, I will be selling off…   Read more»

Apart from the incorrect year, the meeting is still scheduled for the 14th as the first Saturday of the month is usually reserved for launching. As you recall, we once upon a time launched and then met for an afternoon…   Read more»

It would not have lost the fins. 8OWhy not go over the top and…   Read more»

I have three three inch rockets with the Garmin stuffed in the Nosecone.looks sweet!Missed you at the annual meeting. Jobs do get in the way of rocketry, but you need money to buy engines — the eternal conflict!

Paint not decals.I have only made one rocket that had decals, (4″ Thor-x)all the rest have been paint.The extended motor mount is about 1/8″ below the fin length.It stands by it-self.I am not happy with the red paint. I used…   Read more»

Sneak into my paint jobs.My worst ignominy was fresh bird crap on my rocket as the paint was drying out doors.

I share My ‘Rocket Room’ With: Washer/Dryer. Three Cats. Furnace.Hot Water Heater. Computer.All my rockets have cat hair someplace in the paint, or glue. It mayjust make them stronger.Great MOON out tonight.If I had cats, I don’t think I’d want…   Read more»
