Hmmm. I've just got to ask.......has anyone ever heard of an incident where a person was hurt or killed, a building destroyed, the planets misaligning, or the end of the universe occurring due to an Estes rocket being launched from an RC plane? Perhaps this is big brother AMA protecting us from ourselves. Everyone should remember to wear thier bicycle helmets whenever they leave the safety of thier bedroom and don't drive over 35mph. Its too dangerous.

A buddy of mine and I used to launch Estes rockets off of the wings of glow powered planes years ago, back before it was not AMA kosher (or at least we did not know). I guess it was about 1978 or so. It worked well. Lots of safe fun.
I don't know why the new RCU won't let me post the link to the old RCU thread; instead, go to the old RCU legacy site at:
http://utopia.rcuniverse.com/
Then go to the [jets] forum, do a search for "rocket' then go to the very last page and read "jet stuff, missiles!!!"
