No one who's really into rocketry EVER has an accurate picture of their fleet.  That holds true for me.  Here's a (fairly) recent picture of my fleet, but there are several others that are in various stages of construction.  I've also purchased some rockets that others have built.  For some reason, they haven't gained enough status to be pictured with all of these (yet).

Here's a list of my rockets - or at least most of them:

ESTES ROCKETS:

Astrocam 110 (A gift from my friend Mack Yocum - Thanks Mack!!!)

Athena

Cherokee-D clone

Cobra-1500 clone

Colossus (shown without the decals)  (Another gift from Mack.)

Corkscrew

Falcon Commander clone (without decals)

Fat Boy

Jayhawk, Pro Series  (Bought built and too nice to fly - at least for now.)

Little Bertha (Scratch built around a BT50 body tube)

Longshot (Not the 2-stage one, this is like a small Mean Machine.  Bought from someone else.  I'll fly it until it dies and then clone it.)

Maxi-Alpha III

Mean Machine

Mini Bertha clone

Mini Mean Machine clone
