A bit of a snarl on the chute, but good recovery none the less.

One of John's many exciting paper rockets on the pad. Man, these things SCOOT!
I fell in love with this rocket as I had built one myself as a young boy. I don't know what he called it, but I called mine H2O cuz it looked like a water molucule.
One of the few glider models that flew today
That H2O type model takes off!
Here is that little paper rocket taking off. Yes, I *did* capture the launch. Look closely in the bottom center of that upper most cloud.
Here is a zoomed image of the rocket in flight. I got lucky with this one!
Here is a collage of my Sprint'73 flights for the day. Her next, and last 5 launches will be at NARAM 47
