So I guess that leaves Goddard-style liquid fuel models for
the big rockets.

Looking around the Praxair website (since I have a branch
about five blocks from my home) it is not clear if you can
get less than a truckful of liquid oxygen at a time, though.
That's the hard part. The fuel side is just gasoline.

FWIW, the new restrictions (fingerprinting, background checks) apply to people handling (from manufacture to end user) only apply to the really big motors, H and above, that use composite propellant.

Smaller Estes motors aren't effected.

However: It might be hard for store owners, hobby distributors, and parents of budding rocket kids to know the difference.

It's too bad the Homeland Security Act has dropped the ax on model rocketry, <http://www.rocstock.org/homeland.info.html>;

I hear their next target is freedom of spee../

These were a little before my time, but the general layout and approach of the ad I saw in Boy's Life in 1971 was similar to these.

What actually got me to send in my quarter: I found a catalog (Estes, 1970) at summer camp. Totally blew my mind. I left the catalog where I found it and responded to the advert as soon as I got home.

Now look at me!

I found the exact ad I clipped from an issue of Popular Science to send in for my first Estes catalog, that must have been around 1966.

Take a look at:

http://www.ninfinger.org/~sven/rockets/ads/mrads5.html

The model on the left is the Explorer. I literally just yesterday finished a "clone" of this rocket, which was last produced in 1971. I had to turn the nose cone from a wood block, and hand-cut the decals. I plan on sending it to Leroy Piester, the founder of Centuri. He runs a chain of Phoenix-area hobby shops now.
