Description

OldRockets, an official special-interest group of the National Association of Rocketry, is dedicated to the interests of model rocketeers who remember with fondness (or perhaps not) the rocket kits of days gone by. It's a nostalgia list for people who remember the days before Ready-To-Fly kits. It's a place to reminisce with others and trade anecdotes about the good old days of model rocketry.

The picture at right is of a venerable Astron Omega, launch vehicle of choice for the Estes Cineroc.
