Flight Log - 2018-01-30 - Graeme Cooke's Veteran

Built this kit in the 1980's when I was about 10.  I lost the original parachute and run a smaller chute.  Even still have 3 of the original 6 fins.  All original tubes parts.  Over 40 launches on this one.  Very reliable.

 

Finished in brushed on flat olive drab with brushed german grey for the expander and nosecone.
