Hey DAD, I wanta fly in that!

Here is an interesting rocket. Brad Vatsaas built this wild looking rocket and flew it at the SSS May launch. Check out the Commander Kip Quasar's Galactic Zephyr on the Vatsaas web site here for more information.

Here is Marty working on the motor for the Mini Magg.

Marty's Mini Magg making some flame. This was a drag race with one of Mike Luma's rockets but couldn't get both in the shot.

Here is Kevin next to his 6" black rocket before it went up on a 3" 8 grain sugar full 'L' motor. It went 8442'.

Here is a Windows media video of the launch.

Here is Mike Luna's new launcher before it got toasted by a fire made by an AMW Green Gorilla 'M' Motor in Don Alexander's upscale Honest John. The case got the worst of it but the unit still worked after the damage was done!

Check out the video of Don's Honest John here.

On the right is Kevin and myself crunching some numbers for a motor Ron Zeppin is working on.

Here is a video of Marty's Chubsy on a 3" 6 grain sugar motor. It went 5811'. It is a 820kb Windows media file.
