Not to mention the Sept 11 Tune Up. I’ve 9 flights slated for Oktoberfest…

Thanks Joe!

Hey Steve,

9, very cool! How many different birds?

I’ve got nearly all the engines from Joe already

My theoretical dance card:

Sudden Habanero Rush on a Longburn K
Toothless on a J-449 Blue Streak
My new Pork Arrow on a J-380 SS (maiden flight) then a L-990 BS
Oops on a H-237 SS
New Maxxed Norad on an I-236 BS, then a J-425 BS
Git Along Little Doggie on a J-530
Stang (my 5 fin, assuming it survives Sept 11 launch) K-300 Longburn

Two Longburns and an L shot in 54mm should be interesting. All with my DC-30 in them…

I am trying to finish another rocket, a Phobos, but I am running our of time. I did not start my 75mm MT Intimidator. Rats. On the other hand, I’ve a good set.

Looking forward to seeing what everyone else is up to too.

FYI – I moved this topic to a more appropriate forum.

I’ll be flying my L3 bird (still not painted yet) on an M795 – expecting 22K+. Also probably flying my L2 bird on an L1300BB and possibly also on a L730. Finally, I have a nice little minimum diameter 54mm bird (no name yet) but really optimized for the K975ST load that’s been sitting in my magazine for a couple years now. Possibly 25K+ on that flight.

I also like the name “Still Not Painted Yet”

Very nice – 22k on your L3? It must weigh less than mine. I don’t have much scheduled for Oktoberfest, but I will be sending my L3 up (also still not painted :D) on my most powerful, fastest, and highest boost to date. I have an N5800 C-star for it, which should go to mach 2+ and 27k or so. Other than that, I don’t have a whole lot planned – perhaps a stint as LCO at some point, and maybe some small, fun flights on G-J motors. No real specific plans though.
