Great Weekend!
Had a great weekend flying rockets.
Saturday was our local club (www.wooshrocketry.org) launch, where I started to practice on my launch shots.... |

...and then on Sunday I went out with my brother and some friends of his from out of town and got better.
BTW, that's me holding my little A-10 GoonyHog. I put a "C" under her for the first time and man, what a flight! Later, EV |

I was going to ask the same thing. One looks like a USS Atlantis, and if I'm not doddering in my premature senility, you posted something about it a while back.
The other one looks like it might be a scratch build around the current X-Prize Starchaser nose cone. Yes? No? Secret recipe?

Bill,
(in my best Phil-Hartman-impersonating-Ed-McMahon voice) you are correct, sir! The first "nekkid" one is my USS Atlantis ProtoWarp, which I described in this thread; http://forums.rocketshoppe.com/showthread.php?t=441 The second one is indeed centered around a PNC-60TS from an Estes X-Prize Thunderstar. It's a little something I whipped together after being inspired by a late night movie. Here are a couple of static shots of her. Anyone care to guess the inspiration piece??? Later, EV |

My first thought was "The Last Starfighter", and the second was a Star Fury from B-5...
