  • My "Same Old Blues" (an Always Ready Rocketry 3" Basic Blues kit) lifts off on an H242. This rocket's last attempt at flight resulted in a zipper right through the letter "b" in the decals, meaning that it now says "Same Old 'lues". This flight reached 1354' according to the on-board altimeter.
