We held over the motor we didn't use after my Level 1 flight and saved it for the Rocket Team Vatsaas Extravaganza at GHS2003.

It was another perfect day, cloudless sky and neglible wind.

I was fortunate to have to great guys to witness my certification, Corey McCormick and Mark Saunders of BSD Rocketry. They gave me some great help and support, thanks dudes!

Its' not well known, but a performing an ancient Celtic dance prior to flight increases the probablity of stupid pictures coming back from the photo developer.

The Grimace slammed off the pad on the J350. The blast was enough to bust two legs off Bradley's Launch pad. The boost was satisfyingly straight.. And as always's over too soon. Estimated altitude was 4,300 feet at apogee
Proof that PVC has a fatigue life. Recovering your rocket intact is almost as cool as the launch.
