Flight Log - 2017-09-23 - Steve Lindeman's Bull Pup 12D

Scale model o' USAF AGM-12D Bull Pup air-to-ground missile!

I built this model for scale compatition which means that t' steerin' fin piviots have been moved up unto t' nose cone where they belong.

Flight Date: 2017-09-23
Rocket Name: Bull Pup 12D
Kit Name: Estes - Bull Pup 12D {Kit} (1270)
Flyer's Name: Steve Lindeman
Motors: B6-4
Wind Speed: 4.00 mph
Launch Site: JMRC-M.I.S./Graves Farm Campground

2nd flight for this rocket. Ya scallywag! Used an old (15+years) B6-4 that was layin' in me range box. Big mistake. Motor almost cooked t' rocket. Rocket only made about 30-40 feet which be good as t' shock cord was melted in half. Sever scorch mark on nose cone and bad blisters on t' body tube. Ahoy! Will need a little T.L.C.  before flyin' again.
