rocketry: rockets: flight log

This is where you can find out what rockets I've flown, where I've flown them and what the flight was like. I've started it at UKRA '99 where I flew my first motor bigger than an Estes D, that G80 fairly threw that rocket into the sky. At the bottom you can find the total number of flights I've made with the total Ns of AP I've burned. I haven't included any of my Estes rockets, as I can't remember half the flights and I've sort of moved on to high power now.

¹No altitude data will be posted unless the rocket carried an altimeter
