Gus,Thanks for posting the pictures of the Centuri LAI-50. I bought my first rockets and gear from Centuri in 1967. My much used LAI-50 was in a wooden telescope box stolen out of a friend's storage unit back in 1995. Also in the box was my Mantis launcher, bunch of Apogee Blackshaft tubing, launch rods, and other gear.
The attached picture was from Winter 1967 in a field near my house in Central Ohio. Own designed model from the Centuri parts assortment.
Chas
I also have a LIA-77 that I stained brown. Don't recall if I have the blast deflector anymore.
