Built from plans in an old issue o' t' Model Rocket News printed in t' 1960s.
This model has been on me "build list" for 35 years. Well, blow me down! It has a big cardstock nozzle and clear fins. Begad! Looks a little like t' Estes Thor Agena B with Air Force decals.

At 50' feet up, it did a full loop, then vertical again. Turned over at apogee an ejected full 'chute. One clear fin shapped in half, shiver me timbers, away from root edge.
