Biography:

I got to know model rocketry in the US a couple of years ago. Back in Europe I lost contact to that hobby. In 2011 I started to check the rocketry scene in Germany and was happy to find a couple of likeminded people. Now I am back in rocketry doing mostly MPR in Germany and Switzerland.

This was my Tripoli L1-flight. Perfect start and recovery system ejection. Because of the big parachute it drifted several minutes in the wind and crossed two nearby powerlines. Perfect landing. - H123 - ALRS XIV, Cernier, Switzerland [More]
