Default Another nice find

I was going through my rocket collection and parts today and came across a kit for the Estes Nighthawk. I buy a lot of parts on Ebay and this must have been one of them. It was in a old plastic bag with no picture so I just figured it was parts and never opened it. Today I opened it and discovered it was a kit. Everything is complete except the header card or picture insert. Wow you never know what you are going to get on Ebay.

Cool. When you have time, I'd be interested in the weight of the lead strip that goes in the glider - I have some lead sheet, a bit thinner, and I'd like to get the initial weight close.
