Default Model Missiles, Inc. Aerobee-Hi Review

Here is the review of the MMI Aerobee-Hi kit I mentioned in the other thread about Orville Carlisle. It was scanned from the September 1958 issue of American Modeler.

It just caps off a day when nothing is going right. It all started when I lost my scone at the coffee shop. It was lost in all of about 5 feet between the cash register and the cream & sugar bar. Then I lost my keys in the 10 feet between there and the door.

Once I finally got out to my car I knew it was going to be "one of those" days.

Every so often, I'll put something on the roof of my car while I unlock the door, and then I'll leave it there. Then someone in another car will honk and start waving at me to let me know it's there. Or not, and it'll fall off.

One time I left a bottle of Courvoisier VSOP cognac on my car, and totally forgot about it. I'm sure it fell off and broke on the street, but I never saw it again.

Well, I did find them, I didn't mean to imply that they were permanently lost The scone was up on a shelf above the cream and sugar and the keys were back up at the counter (but behind some candy for sale).

The cute young thing at the counter was starting to treat me like a nursing home escapee however. You know, "ARE WE SPTTING OUT OUR PILLS AGAIN, MR. SCHACHNER? YOU KNOW THOSE ARE FOR YOUR OWN GOOD!"

Yeah, yeah.
