Close-up of the "flash pan" used to insure ignition of all ten motors in Kevin Trueblood's Tasmanian Devil. All the motors ignited, but the rocket failed structurally shortly after liftoff, scattering pieces all around the launch area. Photo by Greg Smith

Lon Westfall's ASP Tall Boy flying in a CHAD staged configuration using a cluster of one D and two C motors in the bottom "stage," igniting a single E9 motor in the sustainer. This was the only staged AND clustered rocket to fly at GARLO 2006, and earned Lon a special award from the judges. Photo by Greg Smith
