I was not planning to bring anything with me and I was planning to build stuff that I buy there, but I have a box that I may load my Groundhog-16 into and maybe one or two other models and spare parts. The box will fit in my large suitcase.

Here's my current list (from post #128 of this thread on TRF: http://www.rocketryforum.com/showth...?t=44510&page=7), which will be getting juggled pretty regularly now, and will be getting shorter too, as the week goes on.

The first 6 on the list are definite, all others are maybe's.

Oh, *plus* whatever I buy and can build on site!

1. Semroc Golden Scout #635 - just needs decals
2. Semroc Golden Scout #636 - just needs decals
3. Estes Big Daddy - done
4. (scratch) Big Stick - in primer, needs paint or wraps - 3x 18 mm cluster, 6 fins, BT-80/BT-70 body
5. (scratch) 7-Up Flyer - is ready! - 2x 18 mm cluster, 7-Up label wrap
6. (scratch) 50th Anniversary Toothpaste - will try to bring parts to build on site
7. Semroc SPEV - in progress, still being built
8. Estes - Interceptor - in primer
9. (scratch) Demon Rider - is ready! - Red BT-60, devil tail arrowhead fins
10. Red River Prometheus - in progress, still being built
11. (scratch) Delta 4 Heavy - in progress, still being built
12. Semroc Recruiter - in primer

Well, after trying to load my truck I am forced to rethink what I'm taking.

Sort of a bit off more than my little truck can hold situation.

OK: I just had great news. My Sister in Law is getting a ride from someone else to the Wedding in Maryland, so I will have some more room. My Wife has already warned me not to fill the car (a Mini Cooper) to the brim with rockets!!!

But I should be able to fit a chair....

And maybe my original Centuri Orion...

and my original Interceptor...

And my original Centuri Skylab..

and...

OK, here's a shameless plug!

I will be bringing;
4 x 13mm Nike Hercules kits,
4x18mm Nike Hercules kits,
Nike Ajax kits,
BT-60 Pershin1a kits (complete kits not just nose cones!),
BT-80 Pershing 1a kits,
Big Astron Sprint kits,
Soyuz kits,
LTV Scout kits,
X-20 DynaSoar nose cone kits,

and one big Constellation kit (BT-56 body)

Plus a bunch of other "special" nose cones!

Everything is in limited numbers 'cause I just have a little S-10 p-up truck.

WHEW! I'm exhausted!

I will have the following rockets at NARAM-50 for flying:

AeroTech

Initiator (Of course!)
Arreaux

Estes

Big Daddy (Original version)

Quest

Aerobee Hi (The discontinued version, not the new, MMI, model)

Only a few to fly this NARAM. I had to leave room in the shipping box for all the stuff I'm going to buy at NARAM and need to ship back!
