After this years 2nd annual rocket launch I was unable to find my "Big Daddy" rocket lost in the tall grass across on the other side of the runway. Just over a month ago I took one last look for it and happened to stumble upon it but the body was in ruff shape due to a couple of rain storms since it was lost. Well today I have finally finished rebuilding it by replacing the body and reusing everything else. "Big Daddy II" is now ready to maiden. It now is a little heavier due to the new construction so it will now sport a home made 36" orange parachute made of aviation grade parachute material that I picked up on eBay. Can't wait to launch this one again.

I want to see the new chute in action ... as I have 4 more yards of material and can convert over all my rockets to this material if it works correctly.
