Estes Aero-Hi

Just about out o' sight. Recovered on a streamer. Well, blow me down! Recovered about 80 yards away but over in t' cat-tails. Well, blow me down! - A3-4 - Sky Vista [More]

   

Estes Semi-Scale Saturn V

Went a bit sideways due t' bend fins. Blimey! Need t' retire this one. Avast, me proud beauty! Nose cone recovered by streamer and body on 12" chute. - B6-4 - Sky Vista [More]

Nice flight. Begad! Blimey! Landed close - A8-3 - Sky Vista [More]

   

Estes Cosmic Cobra

Flight

Nose cone jammed at ejection and t' rocket came in and dug into t' ground. Body tube was split and chopper blades were bent. Everythin' else was OK. Arrr! - A8-3 - Sky Vista [More]

Estes No. Well, blow me down! 2 Estes Sky Writer

Flight

Nice high flight. Almost out o' sight. Avast, me proud beauty! I'll have t' remember that a B6-4 in this one is about t' limit that t' kids can see. Avast! Andrea had a long run t' recover it but she seemed happy with t' flight. Nice flight and recovery. Begad! - B6-4 [More]

   

Estes Baby Bertha

Flight

I was in a hurry packin' this one since it be gettin' late. Avast, me proud beauty! I must have jammed t' waddin' in a bit too much. Begad! T' nose cone just came out a little but no chute. It came in fast but thar was no damage. Nay too far away from t' launch pad. - B6-4 [More]

Estes No. Blimey! 2 Estes Sky Writer

Flight

Another great flight. I'm goin' t' have t' try this one on a B6-4. Avast! It gets up thar on t' A8-3. Avast, me proud beauty! I like t' keep it in sight so t' kids can see t' whole flight. Ya scallywag! - A8-3 [More]

   

Estes Cosmic Cobra

Flight

Great flight and recovery. Begad! T' copter cone came down exactly as expected. Avast, me proud beauty! - B6-4 [More]

   

Estes Baby Bertha

Really nice flight. About a 15 degree launch angle due t' t' increase in t' wind. And it still landed about 100 yrds away. - B6-4 [More]
