CMASS launch, July 2005

A young boy with his unusual scratch built model - THIS is rocketry!

It's about 2 weeks before NARAM and my hope is to retire my Sprint'73 model there at 500 flights.  In order to do that I have a LOT of flying to do!  So I flew the snot out of this rocket today!  8 flights in all for the day, bringing me up to flight #495.  Whew!

This was a typical and most enjoyable CMASS launch.   Large crowds, many locals and spectators, LOTS of flying and a whole slew of interesting and exciting models. 

I didn't get to fly Dudley here today, but I certainly flew a lot including many of our soon to be announced Micromaxx models and even a foam creation or two.

As always, it is wonderful to see so many rocketeers out flying FlisKits model rocket kits.  It's very exciting to hear, throughout the day, "On pad #3 we have a FlisKits (whatever)!".  Yep, very exciting!
