Silver Comet
     Kit arrived 10/15/01.  Completed construction faily quickly although the boattail system on this one could give folks problems.  I included a baffle system due to the wide body and past experience with difficulties in making recovery wadding do its job.  It's a beautiful kit and well worth the money.  There are a few problems however.  The fin material is a bit thin and could be tougher.  The decals are nice but there a good number of them that are really small and difficult to deal with.  

Launch:  Took her out to launch on 10/26/01 but found that the launch lug had separated from the body.  Will repair and give it another try when I get the chance.
