    Nearly fell over watching nation wide after the 6-1 News.

    Here you had school Boys & Girls in the Roi making 24" rockets in class assisted by Dads instructed by a yank and guess what the propellant was:eek: the dreaded black power. Launching took place by pressing an electronic activating button. Think we are going about things the wrong way, between the Boyne enactments and kids launching rockets from the school football pitch we have it hard. Nation Wide is the way to go, nice friendly presenters with pleanty of screen time.:)

    Black Powder Firing Cannons.

    Now THAT is Intresting.....I have seen model rockets,made by Estes for sale in the UK.The engines are basically BP with a smoke charge.
    Wonder are they these..Or are they building the whole thing from scratch?As I tried to get one of these kits here in the ROI only to be told they were classified as "fireworks" and therefore illegal.So have we now got a job for the Gardai and ERU to arrest these feindish rocketeers?:eek: God knows they might build a V2 and launch it at the Dail or somthing !!!!:eek:


    If you can't win might as well join them.The kids use the Bp. Dad H2O:mad:
