Naram 41 Day 2
The First day for me and my roommate did
NOT start off good :-) we woke up when the cleaning lady knocked and
then realized it was 1030 in the morning !!! OUCH 3 hours of flying
Missed !!
On top of that it Rained for over an hour
of the day Canceling flying until it was over.
1 Hr developing is expensive here So I will
not do it EVERY day BUT I did take some pics and will post them when
I develop the roll (probably tomorrow) I took some digital pics and
Also got some pics from the Flyers Briefing and the Classic Rocket
and Fantasy Craftsmanship rocket Fun Events. |

George Gassaway and Chad Ring prepare some
Reloads for Glider Flights. |
|
Some of the Gliders George and the Others
Brought with then to fly For Fun and for the RCRG Contest
which was most cancelled today for Rain (Will continue on Thursday) |
 |

 |
An Estes Skywinder burns on the pad when the
motor CATO's and starts flaming out the side of the motor and
through the rocket. |
Then we had the
Flyers Briefing with Chad Ring Argueing for clarification on
Rules etc.. BUT I personally think most of his points although
nitpicking were quite valid :-) |
 |

 |
Here you see 2 Old model rocket in
the Classic rocket Fun Event
One is the Estes Starlight which I found to be
quite fascinating and will WANT to duplicate later on :-)
The other is a Centuri Point which ejects the
Engine on a string for Balance and recovers Kind of like a
Lifting Body Rigid parachute style.
Someone flew one at the feild and it actually
worked pretty well. |

This was a VERY Cool Rocket to Behold - It is Held
by its Designer Leonard Fehskens. |

this Most magnificent rocket which I plan to build for myself

Then he sanded them so it has a VERY thick
Foil to the Fins a REAL nice touch THEN you have the Flawless
Finish in Sapphire blue from Testors ! |
