Last night I couldn't get to sleep.  I was tthinking about some photos I had seen on the Japan Association of Rocketry website.  And a design started to gel in my head.  So I got up and started drawing on the computer.  This afternoon, when I should have been processing orders and shipping books, I put this little beast together.  It's designed for featherweight recovery, since there's no way this thing can cary a recovery system.

Here's my plan.  I'm calling it  the "Webbie" .  The URL of the site that inspired it is: -  http://www.bekkoame.or.jp/~yoichqge/jar/lounge/lounge.html">http://www.bekkoame.or.jp/~yoichqge/jar/lounge/lounge.html

oops--I just swing tested my "Webbie" design.  It needs to balance 1/2"
forward of the rear BT-20 tube to be stable.  I stuffed a couple coins--US
dimes--into the nose, and it tests stable.
