Wow, that'd be awesome! I think I may try to zip from about A-D at the next launch. I see several folks have made respectable progress already. I'll get some ARF (almost ready to fly) stuff

ZIP HUH??!! Better be careful John. You can fly an "M" to 30,000 feet, but it might be embarrassing if you cant get an "A" or "B" to pop a chute properly 🙂

Yeah, you have to watch that "dog barf" stuff, it's pretty complicated you know..... And those silly little PLASTIC chutes, man, I tell ya, they could drive a normal man to become a nun. 😛

A Nun huh? 🙂

Yeah, well, they are pretty complicated ya know. You mess up one of those and WHAM wrath of God type thing. I think I heard a guy once talking about his brother's cousins neighbor having a stroke from a melted chute causing his rocket to crash. 😯 Umm, yeah, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. I think....
So anyway, I'm looking forward to next weekend. I sure hope it's a good one!!! I need to get out for a bit.

I think Ill put "Hair of the Dog" up on a "K" next week end.
This Dawg better Barf out somthin a little better than a plastic chute!!! 8)
If I have my way he will Barf twice. 🙂

Hey John,
I can cover you up to a single use F. Beyond that, you will have to talk to THE MAN!!!! 😛

If you want to send up A8-3s & C6-5s all day long, I have ya covered 😆

Holy cow batman, I can't believe how many BP motors I ended up with. I have a handful of Estes wadding I'll be giving away to the first kid that drops by my area.... Also, I'm going to set out a box of motors for kids to use. Not sure which ones yet, but probably in the A or B range. Assuming the weather holds for us.

Awesome. We'll see if the weather cooperates?

Many years ago, during the very first or second MHM - when John Hall was prefect - we had to cancel MHM because it was too dry. It is obviously ery dry now... hopefully the prairie (and my lawn) get a drink soon?

That was the first Mayhem ever and it never happened. Johnny got out of rocketry just after.

Sounds like it wouldn't be a bad thing to have a 65 gal water tank w/ a 12V water pump and a spray hose.
I have a smaller tank I keep at my property for concrete and watering trees. Something like that would work for fire control. Mine use to spray a 30' stream of water out a car wash sprayer unit. I used it for bio remediation in KS years back.
My 65 gal fresh water tanks cost me around $80 a piece last summer. I don't know what the water pumps sell for like mine, it's 14 years old now. But, I bet one of the ones from Home Depot would work better and send out a larger stream of water. I think they carry one 12V model now. 😯

PS,
John, this is my old HP motor box, I put all of my Estes motors in it and took this picture. lots-o-motors.

Also, Pete and RePete after a coat of primer. Needless to say, my 9 yr old Daughter is stoked! I hope we get to fly them Sat. 😉
