Useful info. Also check out FAR 101.1 and FAR 101.41-101.43 issued about the same time... aka "new" regs that pertain to recreational UAS and model aircraft. http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?SID=e424637e63a3140acc6b46d0df3a1858&mc=true&node=pt14.2.101&rgn=div5 (http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?SID=e424637e63a3140acc6b46d0df3a1858&mc=true&node=pt14.2.101&rgn=div5)

Yep. More gooder stuff found here. Covers rockets...
Looks like I forgot to update my last post. I passed well beyond the min score. It took about 40 minutes out of the allotted 2 hours.
A very easy process. Just need to make appointment with my local FSDO office to get my new rating and temporary certificate...
