A page from my hometown newspaper, the Watsonville, CA Register Pajaronian from December 1975.
A group of aerospace modelers met for a weekly launch at a nearby school. I would call the nearby city airport each launch day to let them know.
The Gemini Titan is mine. Using only 6 volts, only one of the two engine cluster ignited. It veered and landed hard before the ejection charge. I asked the reporter not to comment on that flight.
Who would have guessed that 50 years later this would be a full-time job building show models for vendors!
