Thanks for the report. Fun reading as usual.

Your flight milestone makes me tempted to grab my logs and see where I am. I know the totals on individual models but I've not added up how many flights I've launched (at least as a BAR — I have no idea how many from my first rocketry period in Jr. High/High School — though it's a relatively small number).

Great flight report as always, Bill.
I wish I got to fly 25% of what you do.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !
Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.

I know I'm missing a few, but these are the flights I've been able to track on EMRR and RocketReviews since 2001, and the flights I entered in one of my notebooks that survived the 70's.

Start shopping at Wal-Mart and you'll be able to afford to fly more. I had to buy $20 jeans this time, so that will cut into my flying budget.

Not a question of $$, I have over 1K engines/reloads.
Question of suitable flying areas.
