Omitted information on Blue Origin landing number 3

It was the third flight with the same hardw...

Re: My first skill level five rocket
It's a close match, but not quite the same piece. I think only the wonks who would argue over a particular fin pattern on another forum would have a problem with someone using it on a clone though.

There are still some people around running XP, (myself included up till this weekend), so it's not beyond the realm of possibi...

Did you ever get to watch the vids?
