Now that is a great idea for an AE project!

[PHall]

What's the Estes catalog number for that?  I want!

[MSG Mac]

It's in Mandarin.

[ColonelJack]

How did they do that??

They've got around four thousand years of experience ...

[MacGruff]

I loved it! I'll show this clip to one of our new members who is an Aeronautical Engineer. I can just see the wheels revolving in his head as I ask him to help our squadron do the same!!!

It's in Mandarin.

Funny, the billboard is in Thai.

Funny, the billboard is in Thai.

That's what I was thinking too. 

[Luis R. Ramos]

Impressive. Just, wow.

:clap:

That was cool.   Whenever I see fire and a guy yelling into a loud speaker in a foreign language I usually expect it to end with mass carnage and flying body parts

as they say "9/10 would end that way."

[flyboy53]

That was just so cool!

Let's see, three of them might put something in sub orbit.

Wonder if someone is going to volunteer to ride the next shot?

[CadetSnuffy]

WOW!! Now that changes everything you have ever thought about rockets. When do they get put into mass production?

[Plane]

Now how to get someone to approve construction of this....

GREAT video. How many of you remember Wan Hu from our Aerospace 81 cadet text?

http://history.msfc.nasa.gov/rocketry/06.html shows the same graphic - note CAP credit.

Now, had Wan Hoo/Hu used a rotationally stable vehicle, perhaps his legend would have been even greater. Not that I'm endorsing the Roton, which had an HQR of 10.

I get to tell the story of Wan Hoo once or twice a year since I've incorporated it into the Model Rockets material I use!
