AKA: RichD Location: Exton - Southeast Pennsylvania Certification Level: self certified level 0 (heehee) Club Memberships: Southern Pennsylvania Area Association of Rocketry (SPAAR) NAR #503 Favorite Rockets: Estes Nike-X, Bandit, Andromeda & Beta Biography: Born Again Rocketeer: Flew all sorts of Estes Kits as a kid in the '70's. Restored most of them and now building several new kits. Completed a high-tech launcher and working on several other electronic applications for rockets. Mostly just building and flying a bunch of new low-power rockets. I'm creating an ever expanding data base of altitude, speed, etc. readings, as I mostly fly an altimeter in each rocket. In this low power arena I will make all the mistakes I possibly can before moving up to higher power. I'm learing something new about building or preparing rockets with each flight. Member of Lancaster PA's SPAAR, good club. I specialize in (read: "can only afford") smaller (up to E) rockets. Generally a bit anal about flying rockets - never lost a model yet and hope to never loose one, I strive for perfect flights, and learn from all the mistakes (Oh, so many of them!) I will likely be getting into more powerful stuff as my budget allows: F and G at the most.
