Gordon!!! You sly dog... I've been lurking away at TRF.com and there's been no mention of this until today. I guess I need to check out YORS Forum more often.

I'm a sucker for the Nike-Hercules, so you know I'll buy whatever you come up with.

On the booster transition....with a good master plug, a mold could be made to make fiberglass copies. There are some good videos on-line of the process at this site. http://www.freemansupply.com/video.htm

If you do the N-H, it definately has to be staged. The trick is getting the sustainer's conical tail into the booster transition like the real one.

It's been a long time since I've had a 'big project'. OOOHHHH I'm STOKED!!!
