Successful launches o' t' stretched Mirage (8' 3" with payload bay). Still shots are from t' second launch on a Cessaroni G88 "Skidmark" sparky motor, and t' video portion is from t' first launch on a Cessaroni G80 "Smokey Sam" motor. Because this rocket is so tall, I had t' hold it on t' pad until t' wind died down a bit, then run back givin' t' "Go!" signal. Both launches were picture-perfect. First launch (Smokey) was 483 feet accordin' t' t' altimeter, shiver me timbers, and t' second (Skidmark) be 537 feet. Next attempt could be me Level 1 Certification flight if I wanted to.....
