I understand they got around 80,000 feet. Gps stopped recording around 60,000
feet on the way down. Team is looking for it.

I am so glad Jakob got it right this time! I
have seen at least three of his attempts. His rocket is always amazing as
is the pad. Wish I could have seen it.

"how they light 'em" reminds me of the seventies when we would throw away
the igniters and replace them with fuse. It was light and run! Of course
those were Estes rockets the dust cloud was not so big. Nice Photos
Steve!

Many more
photos to parse. If you had a launch and remember the time, I can check
if I got a shot. I mainly shot the big projects as I was busy prepping
my own supersonic shredder (the biggest piece landed about 20 feet from the
hybrid R on the pad...)
