I, and a lot of the old farts, made quite a few jumps under those things. That color pattern was very common. I don't remember too many stand ups on those, though. Thanks for the cool video.

billeisele 122 #9 May 3, 2009 8,000 lbs of thrust, 5 sec burn - hold on tight shooting M & P motors, he is definitely on the ATF watch list LDRS - large dangerous rocket shoot, annual "big boogie" for rocket fliers, you think we do some crazy stuff, just attend one of these, check your car insurance and make sure it covers "death by rocket" the chutes don't always work and these things raining down are some serious lawn dartsGive one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
