Special thanks to
all the people who found my rockets when I had ZERO
success out in the
brush!
I got to put faces on e-names and catch up with my buddy Paul Kusal.
I've posted the photos
by Chris Billings and the
ones I took.
The photos that
Nadine
(Kinney) took are awesome!
Richard Ortega's
museum quality NCR Archer was the last flight of NSL.
You could see his
stress and excitement with the thunder and lightning 5
miles away in the
background, the misfire of the first igniter, the last
countdown.
UROC
ran a great NSL. I hope to get up there again.
Talking on the PA asking everyone to come
up to the line.
