No. His video tile went live for a moment or two during someone else’s presentation - he looked good by the way - but he didn’t present later.

Yeah, that was a bummer. Would have much rather seen Randy then a couple of the others that droned on far too long... It almost seemed like the organizers were trying to save the best for last.

So, here we are a couple moths later, did I miss anything (likely) or has there been any word on Randy? If I have missed a thread, please point me in the right direction.

He's been to several launches that I've attended in the past few months. Looks and acts perfectly normal.

Yeah, I was pretty proud of how that turned out and drove to Muncie to fly on a day better spent building. I needed just a few flights to log #1000 and I had launch fever. I should have just gotten a booster shot. My worst day ever. Flight #1000 turned out to be more like flight #999.333. The F50-6T turned out to be more like a F50-2T and the whole shooting match came apart in mid air. The body section fell to the asphalt. The nose cone and parachute sailed off toward Richmond. Also had several CATOs on other flights. I'm guessing I vented my spleen on here when I got home. I filed MESS reports on all the carnage, and Estes replaced the Ventris with a new one. I built the new payload and nose cone section and repaired the body tube, and finally flew it last year in the cornfield.
