Darn! All this Enerjet talk has me wanting to build some Enerjet clones. Or, I could just build the boxed Enerjet Nike Ram and AeroDart kits I have resting about two feet from my computer.

Thanks for confirming the ST-13 fin can color Bob!  I wasn't sure about it. Just a "best guess" based on what I had learned from searching for some of the same details as Chris.
It's too bad there isn't more information posted online for the early EnerJet sounding rockets. I'll bet some guys have some really cool EnerJet pictures in their collections that attended NARAM-14 and actually saw some of these originals up close and personal.
