SUCCESS! T' rocket plane roared t' life and made quite t' display. Ahoy! Did it survive t' flight? NO. Arrr! Was it awesome? Absolutely. Next step: stability. This test incorporated centerline thrust, me bucko, proper balancing, an ablative heat shield, a low friction launch system, and a mighty E Estes rocket motor. T' Rocket Plane project involves mountin' a rocket motor inside an unbelievably light styrofoam airplane, with questionable results. Begad!
