Reminds me of a quote I had seen 

"Our main goal for a long time [developing the V2] was to make it more 
dangerous to be in the target area than to be part of the test crew."

Yes.  I got a sharp set from launch to the sky.  On this one, you can see the

With an email address, I can send others…

I had posted it here, but have been slow in emailing out the heads up:

Was that a LOC V2?   Looks like the one I built:


She also came back ballistic on the second flight (with an L730):

Did anyone get a picture of Gary Vielbaum’s big V2 going up on an M1939?  It 
had a fancy paint job, flew well, came in hot.
