2022-03-19Mercury Redstone 4  Flight First flight for this rocket and I was nervous because I didnt want to damage it as it took some time to build.

Alpha Flight Beautiful day with light winds, perfect launch and recovery on the A8-3. Still trying to find some B4-4 for next launch, hopefully before the lakes thaw. - A8-3 - Mirror Lake AK [More]
2022-01-16Mini Honest John Flight Perfect flight and recovery couldn't ask for better - A3-4T - Eagle River [More]
Viking Flight Perfect flight and recovery couldn't ask for better - 1/2A6-2 - Eagle River [More]
