Had a great day of launching at the first annual NERRF yesterday. Good flights from my Trident, Starship Vega, Missile Toe, and Interceptor clones. The Interceptor, made from Moldin' Oldies parts, was a little wobbly on a C6-3, perhaps because of the heavier resin fin pods, but still was nice. My best, and most crowd-pleasing flight was my Blast From the Past Centuri Space Shuttle. After a bit of a twisty boost on a C6-3, a perfect separation and the orbiter and booster glided in formation for a few seconds before the orbiter peeled left, and circled around for a nice touchdown. The booster had a lovely flat glide to the right, over the crowd, over some trees, and into the middle of a river, which promptly carried it out of sight. It ditches quite nicely, in case anyone is interested. I hope Mike Jerauld gets production back up on these; you really need the vacuum formed nose cones he had to make this beauty glide.
It's nice to hold a crowd's attention at a mostly high power launch with something small and interesting.
