Here's a picture from an Ebay listing:
JETEX 50 MIG 15 WITH A 15.25 INCH WING SPAN
THESE PLANS INCLUDE HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN CLEAR AND LIGHTWEIGHT CANOPIES
PLUS FREE JETEX FUEL FORMULA!
Compare that design to a Centuri Mach 10 clone I never finished.
I used to wonder where a designer found their inspiration.
Before I built model rockets, I played around with the old Jetex 50 engines. You'd load fuel pellets into a metal tube and clamp on the front and rear closures.
Sounds a little little like today's reloadable casings doesn't it?
