Flight Log - 2011-05-18 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Semroc Batrok
Centuri design from the 1960s designed during the TV Batman craze. I finished mine like the Adam West Batman costume, complete with a yellow ulility belt band on the nose block coupler. This model hangs upside down during recovery so the fins don't get tangled in the shroul lines at ejection.
