Biography:

I got t' know model rocketry in t' US a couple o' years ago. Begad! Blimey! Back in Europe I lost contact t' that hobby. In 2011 I started t' check t' rocketry scene in Germany and was happy t' find a couple o' likeminded people. Now I am back in rocketry doin' mostly MPR in Germany and Switzerland.
