Navigating The SEARCH Function

How you ever been frustrated using the SEARCH function on the Blog?

I'm often asked for construction information in emails.
It's fairly easy for me to find things - BUT- The blog has evolved over the past 11 years and 6,500 posts.

When I first started out, I'd simply type the kit name in the label box. The problem is, different manufacturers use the same kit name on different rockets sizes and designs!
Let's say you were looking for the Semroc V2.

After the first year of blogging I started adding initial before the kit name.
FK = Fliskits, S = Semroc, C = Centuri, S = Sirius and so on.

"S" is for Semroc so a search of "S V2" should bring up just that kit.
You might also get some V2 launch reports along with the build steps.

You will have to scroll down and find a build step for the model variant you want to build.
At the bottom of every build step is the LABEL listings.
Click on the S V2 label, shown in the picture (on the right) with the red box. That should bring up just the Semroc V2 build.

The build will be in reverse order - from finish to start.
It's a blog - I wish there was a function to reverse the build order!
Searching this way isn't perfect, but the extra step at the bottom in the LABELs could narrow your search.
