Space Shuttle

Would have liked to see a little more graphics on the Space Shuttle itself, I have several of the Early versions and actually have one signed by a 4 Time flyer if the Shuttle to ISS. One of my favorite Model Rocket kits, but then I have a lot of favorites!

Good memories

I built this project approx 30 years ago - it was balsa that was fairly easy to build into the shuttle in the picture. I was in the Army then and my last launch of that one was in Germany - seems the German police that approached me didn't have the enthusiasm for model rocketry that I had and confiscated it along with my motors. Good times.!
