Flight Log - 2013-05-09 - Steve Lindeman's Jetliner

What a great addition t' t' Estes mini engine seriers rockets. Arrr! This little gem resembles a Boin' 737 Jetliner and is bound t' be a blast t' watch on launch day. I have modified mine by replacin' t' 13mm mount with an 18mm mount.

Flight Date: 2013-05-09
Rocket Name: Jetliner
Kit Name: Estes - Jetliner {Kit} (003230)
Flyer's Name: Steve Lindeman
Motors: B6-4
Wind Speed: 4.00 mph
Launch Site: Francis Park - Lansing, MI

After two lousy flights on 13mm motors, decided t' skip t' A8-3 test flight and went for a B6-4. Now this is more like it. T' Jetliner left t' pad with authority and took t' t' blue sky toppin' out at about 200' or so. Parachute was a little late. Arrr! May have t' try a B4-4 or maybe even a B6-2 t' see if they are any better as well as goin' back and tryin' an A8-3. T' C6-5 will have t' wait till I get t' a larger field.
