SteveAll those tubes that we stuck back up on the ladder, all nested together, may have somthing your looking for. I would have to look.

Awesome start to the project today. Rich Wallner and Kevin Osler came up and we got all 6 boosters and 3 main sections glassed with 7.5 oz cloth. Came out nice.Thanks Guys!! You did great!Rich, Me, Scott Evans, Kevin

I don’t know, the pad will likely have be too far away from the flight line like last time.Doug

Doug, Most excellant to read you’re planning on attending MHM. Not to hijack this thead but I’m pretty sure Ed and I would like to loft the Saturn V again from your awesome pad.

Whatever you do with the outboards, make sure they are long burn… J90’s or Loki K250’s or similar. The Delta was underpowered and the M almost didn’t come up to pressure before the H’s burned out.
