a 5 year old girl<o:p></o:p>
a 7 year old girl<o:p></o:p>

Now you don't think an "Old Rocket" can do that <v:shape id=_x0000_i1027 style="WIDTH: 24pt; HEIGHT: 19.5pt" alt="" type="#_x0000_t75"><v:imagedata o:href="http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/images/smilies/cool12.gif" src="file:///C:\DOCUME~1\ANDREW~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\ msohtml1\01\clip_image003.gif"></v:imagedata></v:shape>and keep up, do you?<o:p></o:p>
When we have an astronomy night it's like our own star party..... lol<o:p></o:p>
Actually I fly model Rockets and the kids suggested the nickname to use for this forum.<o:p></o:p>
lol, you guys are too much! Welcome to the gang Andrew.
By the way, I like your images in you avatar
Thanks for the warm welcome Everyone. I'm glad you liked my images on the Avatar, silvinator.
I plan to finish designing my website and I'll let you guys have a look.
Welcome "Rocket Boy", great brood you have there. You have more members in your family than some astronomy clubs I know
I know.... "The Rockets Astronomy Club", you could register it as Inc, apply for grants ....
Don't listen to all those other Rabid Dobbers, you have a a great SCT .... I'm sure you won't want one of those 16" dobs when they come out

Registering and becoming inc.!!! - I'll have to look into that.......
I do love that SCT "gaa_ian" although I wouldn't say no to 16" dob either

Here's my collection.
<o:p></o:p>
First image:<o:p></o:p>
There's the Apollo 11, The Mongoose, Space Cruiser, AstroCam, The Wizzard, The Yankee, White Lightning and The UFO.<o:p></o:p>
Second Image: Standing up including launch pad.<o:p></o:p>
Third Image: My son A.J. with the Apollo 11 Rocket.<o:p></o:p>
I'm not sure what you mean by style. I just use the engines that are recommended for these usually C class. With the little rockets I can get an estimated 1800 feet alt.<o:p></o:p>
I am going to build a 6 foot one soon which uses D size !<o:p></o:p>
