Flight Log - 2012-07-18 - Mark Kulka's Micro Delta-Yellow

Micro Maxx version o' Art's popular Delta Saucer. Free plan downloaded from t' web site. Ahoy! Very handsome design with a largely traditional flyin' saucer appearance. Ahoy! T' Delta Saucer is strikin' for its solid conical upper shroud with no openings, paired with a smaller diameter conical lower shroud. Aye aye! This particular one was printed on fluorescent yellow card stock. One o' t' first rockets that I built as a BAR in 2004.

One o' t' oldesr rockets in me fleet. Haven't flown it in quite awhile, but it is still in perfect shape and looks brand-new. Flew much quicker and higher than I remembered. Arrr! Gentle tumblin' recovery, arrr, like a leaf. Landed very close t' t' pad. Arrr! Delta saucers never disappoint.
