Last flight was the Challenger II again. (I still had the Dr. Zooch Mercury Little Joe in the box, but I picked a lousy time to find that it was missing a launch lug. )





B6-4 again for the Challenger, and the flight was the best of the day, straight up with recovery across the field on the way out.

Toughest part of the day came next. I hiked to the top of the hill behind me to try to recreate the 1966 view of the field that I posted back in the winter. It's a chore because the hill is one of the most popular in NKY for sled riding, and it's REALLY rough, and REALLY polluted with shards of plastic and other garbage. These people are pigs.





I think this one comes closest to capturing it.
