Hello everyone! This past weekend I decided to strap an aircraft to the bottom of the Albatross-3 and the following adventures ensued. In this mission report series (that I hope to finish), I'll be messing around with air-launched rockets and hoping to reach every planet (in one way or another). So, without further ado, I present... Albatross Adventures! Note: Earlier reports (1-8) will be in the form of Google Drive videos while later reports will be in the form of YouTube videos. You can find a full playlist here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbDmRBmartZeh8JVlaPXEIt4qbCagEj9x Mission Report for Astro-1: Outcome: Pilot survival and recovery of a number of hardware artifacts after a rapid unscheduled disassembly. Albatross-3 rendered unusable, will have to purchase new one. Astro-1 Aircraft reusable, although the SRBs will have to be replaced and an air intake (which was not installed to test gliding performace in case of engine failure during ascent) will have to be installed.
