Default For Halloween 2018.......

.....it's Nosferatu!! (a.k.a. the ugliest movie vampire ever conceived)

Usually "The Vixen" helps me with these Spaceman builds, but her right arm is still post-surgical so all she was able to do was cut out the skulls.

This totally rocks!

What do you fly your Men In Space on? The one time I tried to fly mine, the ejection charge on a 1/2A6-2 blew his head clean off!

According to Sam and Dean Winchester, that's a perfectly good way to kill a vampire, even Nosferatu.

Actually, I haven't flown an Astron Spaceman since I was a kid.

Default Coolest Spaceman ever

I have built a few Astron Spacemen in my Model Rocketry Career, but the Coolest one ever was
a Spaceman that I cloned from parts I acquired from Ajax Rocketry (Grant Boyd) back in the early 1990's.
You may ask what made this Spaceman Clone So Cool ? the first time I Launched it on a A8-3, it went up about 150-200 Ft. then it turned Horizontal, Ejected the motor and continued to Glide , slowly curving back around to the left . it landed skidding to a stop. this brought a lot of cheers and laughter to the members at that FSA Launch . this was just one of many interesting and fun times I've had with FSA over the Past 38 + Years.
