Appeal for Video and Photos for Stumpy
Tue, 28 Aug 2007 02:55:52 -0700
Hi All
As always, we never got any photos or video of it for the Rocket Store
website. If there is anyone out there that has any photos or video
that I can use on the Rocket Store website it would be great.

21 World Scout Jamboree
Sun, 12 Aug 2007 15:53:18 -0700
I have posted some photos on a.b.m.r. sent to me by Jon Wesley of Ripmax
taken at the International Scout Jamboree earlier this month. 1032 rockets
simultaneously launched. Lots of QM I believe. Only 16 failed to leave the
'pad'. Looked like a lot of fun was had by the scouts. Mind you 40,000
young people in ...

Black Knights - Cancellation of August Meet
Thu, 16 Aug 2007 16:51:19 GMT
Sadly, after further consultation with the landowner and the local
authority, I have to cancel the flying meeting on Sunday 19th August. While
there are no restrictions on the use of the airfield the local farmers have
animals in the adjoining fields and it would be an unacceptable risk to
those animals if we ...
