Swiss rocketry blog
https://rocketryretrospection.blogspot.com/
Slow day at work, and this was one of the rabbit holes I spent time in. He was a Centuri/Estes/FSI fan as a kid. Great pics, and he name checks Gus at one point.

I remember coming across this blog some handful of years ago; I believe I was in an Enerjet search mode mind set and his blog, ripe with Enerjet references, was one of the hits.
I remember thinking, after reading some of his passages about the difficulty of obtaining American rocktrey *anything* back in the day that, as hard as it was sometimes as a kid to get the money to buy rocketry supplies that, all-in-all, how fortunate I was to be here in the USA and at least have the chance to eventually get these things. Others, in far away places, had a much more difficult struggle than we did. Earl

I added this to my list of blogs in Feedly. I also remember running across it years ago when researching Enerjet information. Looks like good reading so I’ll revisit this soon.
