No, I type it that way so the spambots that scan through message forums can't get my email address. I'll send you a PM with the actual address.

I sent everything I have to Scott. The orig. decal has been posted here before so I posted a PDF version that I scanned. This would be an easy decal to make even if you don't have an Alps printer. You could print the Apache-2 and wrap around decal on regular clear decal paper. The wrap around decal actually has silver not grey, but it is not a real flashy silver so grey will work if you cannot print silver. The Indian circle can be printed on white decal paper. When you cut out the decal just cut into the black border a little, the black will merge into the black fins. Then leave a little white around the feathers that extend past the circle, otherwise the feathers will blend in with the black.

Thread reanimation:

A few months ago I acquired one of these kits in some kind of a fundraising deal for a TARC team over on "that other forum." I thought it would be fun to build it to take to NSL at the end of the month.

Before I open it, Scott, what do you still need to be scanned/measured? The entry on YORP says you still need patterns, though you have what appear to be fin tracings from the Centuri incarnation of this same set of parts (Tiger Streak).

This seems to be a fairly rare bird since it's only in three years of Estes catalogs and only one of Centuri's as far as I can determine....

I flew my Tiger Streak in the cornfield back in late 2020. Being 2020, the sustainer disappeared.

I built a clone but left out the 18mm engine mounts. I lost the 2nd stage to upper level winds even with a streamer. Still have the booster.

Hi Bernard,

Back in 2015 K'Tesh sent us nice scans of the fin pattern and decals with a ruler. They can be found in this thread:

The only thing I'm missing now is a scan of the header card.

I lost mine on a C6-0/B6-6 flight. It staged, then went horizontal, directly away from the pad. I looked for an hour, but saw nothing.
Yep, still have the booster.
