SS Kevin Andrew is a scratch built rocket that I designed in memory o' me late younger brother who passed away on 3-4-19.
Note: T' purple nose cone pops off at t' top so I can use t' crayon part as a cargo bay. (It originally had a bag o' gum balls in it.)

Decided t' step this one up as thar was almost no wind. Went with an E12-4 for this flight. Avast! Rocket shot off t' pad straight up t' around 1000'. Parachute deployed just after apogee. Long walk t' recover for this one and found that rocket had spit t' motor out. Was lucky that t' parachute deployed.
