We do have ALL of those options Bear. Spellcheck is automatic – thanks Jeremiah Johnson for that. The Bold, Italic and Underline are an automatic part of the forum system we use.

I’m going to go back and reiterate that we don’t have the storage space to host a significant amount of photos – linking through to Flickr or Picassa, perhaps with some code to thumbnail the photo, is our best option…   Read more»

Some excellent ideas there Greg. The only one I’d have to shoot down is streaming video – we don’t have the hosting space and more importantly, we don’t have the bandwidth available to support it without a significant increase in…   Read more»

It was a bummer to miss this, but we had a bit of a dinner party up here with some neighbors and local friends. Hope we make it next year.

High Power rocketry and so-called amateur rocketry is probably the most rarified of all hobbies. In one reference I saw that as of 2008 there were less than 10,000 active participants WORLD-wide. That is including everyone from cert’d L1 flyers…   Read more»

Why should I chew you out? Energy and drive are what I’ve been trying to find…

Well then Adrian, I owe you an even larger apology. From early discussions you and I had when you were developing the Parrot, I got the impression you were working to come up with a better model (given the limits…   Read more»

Oh yeah, THE #1 thing I’d love to see is a “Like” button on forum posts.

I must stand up here and make a “Mea Culpa” style apology – in particular to Adrian, but to the all the other “altitude junkies”.For years, there was very little choice in altimeters – Adept, Olsen, Perfectflight, Missileworks and a…   Read more»

Yeah, I agree with you Adrian. However, the company lawyer I talked to was a conservative type. He was clearly of the opinion that as this was “hobby” stuff, we had no need to be concerned. After I explained to…   Read more»

There are, believe it or not, a number of issues in our hobby that skirt the edges of ITAR restrictions that the US government has in place. These are very serious laws and not subject to court oversight but purely…   Read more»

The web truly offers an infinite bounty Joe… the site probably could do with some simplification to make some of the articles easier to find. Hopefully Steve will provide.

Well Joe, since I don’t use those services myself, I’m not the best person to write that up. I would suggest Mike Shinn or Ray LaPanse as they are the most prolific photographers and documenters of our launches.My main point…   Read more»

Since we haven’t worked out all the webmaster transition details, I thought I’d add a thought here.IF you directly embed pictures into a posting, please limit the image size to 640×480 pixels maximum – otherwise is totally screws up the…   Read more»

I’ve offered and taught this class for years. Best turn-out was 3 guys – and that with my wife’s cooking involved no less. (She catered the last 4 annual meetings)I wish you success with the class and would be happy…   Read more»

My complaints Adrian were all purely cosmetic. I wanted to make tubing that looked as good or better than the PF tubing I’ve mostly been using since. All I ever have to do with that is wet sand down to…   Read more»

Good to see you Doug. Hope you’re doing well and look forward to having you fly with us again, preferably with me around to see it.Yes, MD does mean minimum diameter.I did move over to stationary v-bagging, but to be…   Read more»

I did a multitude of experiments with a curing oven back in the early 2000’s when I was trying to make decent tubing on my own. The oven was basically 2″ Polyisocyanurate foil faced foam with a sort of rotisserie…   Read more»

Depending on the final finish you want (paint or a clear finish showing the fabric weave), I use either Aeropoxy light – a very light sandable epoxy putty or I put on an additional thin layer of fiberglass as a…   Read more»

I have scads of carbon fabric – 5.7oz. I’ll give you a deal.
