Clone, bashed from Mega Mosquito kit. Decals by Sandman.

Flyer's Name: Richard Holmes

Launch Site: Syracuse Rocket Club (Weigand's Field)

From the Flat Boy I moved on to the Fat Boy on an E9-6. Just prior, another flyer had an E12 cato, which lent a certain frisson of dread here, but the motor worked just fine. Deployment soon after apogee and an easy recovery.
