Here is a video I thought you'd all enjoy.
It shows the construction of and launching of a 20 foot+ tall rocket made on the fly. It's pretty darn funny. I recorded it along with 3 other folks and edited it.

Enjoy!

That is funny!

hmmm does not look at all like a patriot to me .

was this a waivered launch ?


Definately needs more power ( and a chute ) .

I;d love to have those old Vulcan motors though

That was funny.... what was that coast phase - maybe four rocket-lengths long?

Here is another launch with a Patriot:

Dan Michael's Patriot

Greg

This is almost look and sounds like the real thing. Ahhh the good ol days
