I've decided I've made my last stunt report to arocket. If you want to
keep up with the teams progress
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Team-Prometheus/213171526223?ref=br_rs We
had 2 successful missions the plane drop and the Q booster test. We
bypassed the static test and just went for it we ran out of time this
season. Send me an email if you want to get on our team mailing list
lurkers are welcome.

2 missions and I got married too so there's a lot of editing to do.
Godspeed
