Flight Log - 2015-03-29 - Matthew Bond's Estes Super Alpha

A plus sized version of the venerable Alpha, built around a BT-60 body tube.

This rocket was one of three that I constructed in a hotel in Tucson, AZ while on a business trip and was flown at the annual 2 day Desert Heat launch put on by the Southern Arizona Rocketry Association.

 

Flight Date: 2015-03-29
Rocket Name: Estes Super Alpha
Kit Name: Estes - Super Alpha {Kit} (3216)
Flyer's Name: Matthew Bond
Motors: C6-5
Wind Speed: 3.00 mph

Another great flight, number 3 for the Super Alpha.  Nice boost, good chute, good recovery.  I didn't notice until I looked at the picture that it was racked up right next to another Super Alpha.
