Now we have Jim's Redliner on pad two and Finless on
the left, on pad 4. Finless is a copy of the one we lost last
month.

Jim (left) sets up one of his many
unconventional rockets. |
Ken helps with a high power job. |

A two stage saucer lifts off. |
The Redliner takes off like a rocket! |
Finless is airborne! |
The Skyhook and Finless landed so
far away I wasn't sure if we'd ever see them again. Then Andrea's
phone rang. It was
Heather. They had found both rockets while looking for the
Redliner! All three landed in the same area. |

|
|
Jim's unconventional rocket takes off
with a loud hissing and cloud of smoke. |
It then flies spinning into the air! |
|

|
It landed in the corn. I hope it was
recovered. I want to investigate this thing. |
|
A flight card is made for the huge Der
Red Max. |
It takes to the air on an F engine. |
|
|
Recovery crew (John) is under
Der Red Max, not because he moved but because the rocket
seemed to aim for him.

|
| |
Jim prepares a box of Morton's
Salt while John hooks up a 1980s era
Mercury Redstone that his brother bought when John
was 5 years old.
|
Liftoff, and the clock is running!
He didn't bother to paint it, but it
still looks good. |
