Pyro Flights

Today was a really basic pyro flight day as we didn't really have any water rockets ready for experiments, but it was a nice day and so Paul and I decided to go out and fly a couple of his pyro rockets and also to take launch photos for the club.

Paul flew his Fireflight rocket on a B6-4 that carries a little Lego man. The rocket flew well and landed safely.

His second flight of the day was Dark Thunder on a C6-3. The rocket also flew well and landed safely.

All in all it was a great day to go out and watch other people's rockets and fly a couple of basic ones. It was such a difference to just turn up with minimal gear and have the rockets quickly ready to go.
