Brief
The Super Alpha is the newest member of the far-reaching Estes Alpha family, only in mid-size BT-60 garb and with a terminally mismatched nose cone profile. I love the concept, but not so much the actual presentation, and decided to go with a balsa nose cone with a more Alpha-like profile. Since I was making wholesale changes, I also ditched the decal and went with the look from my first Estes catalog in 1977.
