This is a picture of the Starchaser Suger powered Rocket that was last tested at Morcambe bay, I acted as ground crew to Robert(Bob) Hodgeson who was acting as chase/recovery pilot, Starchaser was supposed to and only cleared to go to about 9Kft it actually went to 19 Kft, that supprised quiet a few people that day

This is in hours building days R22HP over the Ribble Valley with a well brogued foot in view

Daneborg in North East Greenland, 74 degrees North.
HQ of "Sirius", an Danish Special Operations unit doing Arctic Patrol.

Very exciting trip. It is only during the brief summer up there that the coastal waters are (nearly) ice free...
