Flight Log - 2011-05-01 - Jeffrey Gortatowsky's Big 70

My own design. Blimey! Designed t' be impressive in size and flight, makes great demonstration flights. 24mm Motors. Ahoy! Built with BMS balsa parts.

Flight Date: 2011-05-01
Rocket Name: Big 70
Flyer's Name: Jeffrey Gortatowsky
Motors: C11-3
Wind Speed: 2.00 mph
Launch Site: Santa Fe Dam Rec Area, CA

In this restricted area I be sure I could get a good flight and did! Blimey! Always an impressive rocket. Ahoy! Blimey! Forgot t' put t' DAMN altimeter in it! Blimey! Grrr... Only dicey think is I still used a 24 chute as t' rocket is still heavy. Blimey! Blimey! At deployment t' payload bay snapped back and took off a fin. Easy t' repair.
