A Blast From the Past!

I was going through some pictures the other day when I ran across some that I really need to share. They are from the 2012 DARS Classic and feature John Lee's NASA Aeroshell scale bird...all 12 C motors worth! Therefore, without a lot more gabbing, here you go!

John with his creation, right before the epic flight!

On the pad, with motors aplenty!

Liftoff! (Yes, they ALL lit!)

Even the coast phase is impressive!

The beginning of a completely planned huge explosion!

Probably my favorite picture...12 ejection charges!

Laundry deployed!

All systems are "GO" for reentry!

An amazingly soft landing.

She even landed upright!

After-flight close up!

All of those amazing motors!

So there you have it! One of the coolest flights of the day, or maybe even ever!

Until next time, fly 'em fast and high!
