Yeah. I got one of Don's kits as soon as they came out.

The Thrustline kits I was most involved with were the Mike IX, Arapahoe E, and the Starship Electra. I did some beta testing for John at Thrustline....like a lot of other people at the time, but John really liked the paint designs I did for him. Especially the Arapahoe E. What's cool to me is that the paint scheme just became a part of the rocket. I don't think I've seen one yet that is painted differently....maybe different colors or sizes, but they look the same. It's cool to see your handywork carry on like that. Even with the new Squirrel Works kit. The new kit is pretty nice....laser cut fins...high quality stuff in there.

My Payment back then was one of the first production run Arapahoe E kits from Thrustline... Here's the beta, the original kit, and one of the new ones. So Yeah....I'm into the Arapahoe E.
