CIA-Rocketry > Altimeter data from the Raptor flight.

Try spotting an unpainted 1" diameter rocket at 2600' on a hazy day.

CIA-Rocketry > Lon's Hawk Mountain "Raptor" on yet another G75J-M flight.  This time with a PerfectFlite Alt15K/WD recording only altimeter as a payload. 

The motor was a very old one left over from Gary Buck’s old business “Rocket R&D”.  This generation of the motor has a reputation for spitting out nozzles.  That didn’t happen on this flight!

CIA-Rocketry > Weather cocking just a little bit on this windy day.  

Flight was out of sight into the haze until Kevin's eagle eye spotted the chute on the way down.  Thanks Kevin!
