Thanks, Carl. If people can't understand what Coming Soon or Planned means, well... Egg Crate, bonus! Orion, double bonus! Will the Orion have the plastic wraps? I have an original built Orion with the balsa cone if you need a cone for a template. I'm sure you just forgot to include the Payloader II in your list above. Now, if you can bring back the BP F100 motors with those FSI kits you're going to be making...

NOW I see what your marketing plan is, Bill! Sell more replacement upper stages.

The Aerobee-Hi we initially planned was based on the ST-8, slightly larger than the original. We are now doing a BT-40 sized version, very similar to the earliest production runs of the MMI Aerobee-Hi in 1957. The original MMI Aerobee-Hi used a maple nose cone that was later changed to the vinyl one. Estes bought all the remaining stock from Harry and sold it as the BT-40G. Vern said that all the BT-40's they ever sold were bought from Harry. Gleda rolled the first BT-30's but never the BT-40's. Now I can build an Arrow-C, Bug-A-Bye, ...

I don't have any MMI kits, but I do have original BT-40, a maple cone and a couple of the vinyl/rubber cones here. I'd like to find some of that BT-30 that Gleda rolled using that old mimeograph paper or whatever that old copying machine was called.

My guess would have been that you got tired of answering e-mails, "when's xxxxx going to be ready?"
... and thanks for the link Jay.

Speaking of Semroc, I should have some pretty cool pics to share tomorrow night. It's not an official release as yet, but it's Semroc through and through.
I would have had them tonight but I had cafeteria today and didn't get as far along on it as I had hoped I would. (And the Reds were on. And they won. ) |
