Oh, man…you walked in to this one. If you hadn’t decided to use the outhouse at the last minute it wouldn’t have nosed over. Speaking of smelly, our hot-water heater decided to go out, yesterday. Haven’t eaten Christmas dinner off paper plates since my college days. Ah, the memories. Hope everyone had a merry Christmas and the New Year brings many days of clear skies.

Basically, looks like a single spoke wheel with the spoke in the shape of a propeller and off set rockets to spin it for stability. Pretty neat flight, but I have to agree w/Patrick. We would not allow that type of ignition on our range. I have seen spools, pyramids, bowling balls, and yes, even an outhouse launched (that didn't do well as not all engines ignited and it got about, maybe 30 ft up, and then just nosed over, and---wham!). Our insurance keeps us pretty much on the straight and narrow! Thanks for the post. 73
