Do you have any pics of the pad actually flying under rocket-power ?


I have very few photos of anything from the 70's.

However, it is actually in my first Prang Film, which is on the Old Rocketeers Reunion DVD. There is a sequence where the music "Fanfare for the Common Man", by E.L.P. begins, a rocket takes off from the MPC pad...... and then the MPC Pad takes off.

I could try to get some screenshots but the images would be poor. Also I shot it zoomed back a bit too much, I later wished i'd shot a zoomed in pre-launch "establishing scene" to make it more obvious what was going on.
