When I was asked why
I was going to attach model rocket engines to a large Styrofoam plane and
launch it, my response was, “Because it’s a Styrofoam plane, and they’re model
rocket engines… and I’m going to launch it.” I mean, c’mon. Isn’t that
pretty obvious? So my co-workers got
together and made history…
So here’s what was used:
1) Large Styrofoam plane: 4 ft wingspan
2) 2 C6-3 model rocket engines w/ launcher
3) Elmer’s glue and duct tape
4) Cardboard box (sophisticated launching platform)
5) Complete lack of common sense
In a nutshell, I
found the center of gravity and attached the rocket engines on either side of
the fuselage with Elmer’s. 
You can
also see the wicked-cool teeth on the front of our plane (called the Spirit of
Insanity).
Then we added a little duct tape for safety
sake. Duct tape saves lives, yo.
After thoughtful
consideration, we chose the SLP-3090 Cardboard Launch Pad as our launching
platform. 
The SLP-3090 has a strategically placed flap
on one side that can be used to lift one end… for greater lift.
Then we answered a
few questions from the police. And then
it was time to ROCK AND ROLL, BABY!
But there was
something wrong. 
But we re-wired
it, 
and then it was really and truly time to ROCK
AND ROLL, BABY!
