Blimey! is short for: Fédération Aéronautique International, which be t' world governin' body for air sports, aeronautics and astronautics world records). F.A.I. A-engine parachute duration is one o' t' events bein' held in July 2014 at NARAM-56 here in Colorado, matey, so we wanted t' release a basic model that will get you a qualified flight per t' rules. Aye aye! Since it is a duration model with a big parachute, thar be no reason that this rocket won't be t' winner. Begad!
