Jeff,

You did a beautiful job on your model.
I just don't like Estes rendidtion of this model.
That why I'm doing this build. Hopefully it will fly.
It reminds me of one of the gooney rockets, gone bad.

Thanks! I knew what you meant, actually.
I just can never pass up a chance to post photos.

Unfortunately, it wasn't my kit. I only built it.

Default More picking

I'm still picking at this build and I'm on a minor crossroads. What to do about the nose cones?
