I'm trying to learn this stuff but it seems you guys absorbed it and memorized it in your formative years.
I used to stare at my catalogs at night but the text did not seem to register in the same way as with y'all!

Another Bertha question:
The 1986 catalog changes the model number from 1223 to 1948. The rocket is also listed as "updated". I see that it still had 18mm mount. Did anything change except for the livery/decal?

I didn't know that. The only catalog posted on Ninfinger that contains the original Apogee contains no motor listings, nor do the catalog pages list recommended motors for the kits. Innnterrrrrrrrrrresting............. This was slightly before my first rocketry period. The first catalog that I really remember is the 1967 catalog. I would've been 12 that year.

The later Ranger kit was simply someone with the same name. I don't think that every John Lee in the US is your relative, right?

Vega and Betty are even more distant. They are related to Bertha like a zebra is related to a horse. Sure, on some far removed level they are all related...just like we are all related to Adam. Or Attila the Hun. (My mother used to say that.)
