I know this is a real stretch, but I can
only try.....

Lost a fluorescent pink, minimum
diameter, 38mm rocket from the
runway around 1999 or 2000.
(Around the time the permanent,
away pad went in the ground.)
This was probably the last rocket I
flew before cash-flow, job change
and relocation hassles diverted me
away from rokkit science.

Conditions have changed, so I'm jumping
back into HPR...with both feet! No longer
on a shoestring budget....the VISA card
is smoking from all the rokkit stuff I've
been ordering since the August '09 Bong
launch.

Had a solid, resin, conical nosecone
and the resin fin can was epoxied
directly to a (30"??) length of 38mm,
phenolic, MM tube.

Recovery was by streamer and a
small X-form 'chute. I think everything
was tied together with bungee cord as
was popular at the time.

I don't remember what motor was in
it....but it sure disappeared in a hurry.
It was one of those end-of-the-day-let's-
hurry-'em-off-the-pads-as we're-running-
out-of-light kind of launches....so the fast
countdown caught me un-prepared.
I think it was Blue Thunder propellant,
so there wasn't much smoke to give me
an idea where to begin to look for the
rocket. I spent the entire following day
finding and exploring every nook and
cranny at Bong.

Quite a lot of rocket hunting has taken
place in the last 9 or 10 years, so....
anyone have my pink dart sitting on a
shelf or in the junk box???
