Rocketry
Rocketry is a stepping stone to any spaceflight program. While developing and testing scaled versions of our space-plane design we fell in love with the hobby of rocketry. We are heavily involved in promoting rocketry through our involvement in STEM events such as the inaugural and annual Launch Canada event, air cadets, schools and indigenous groups.

Rocket Flight Log (Hardcover)
The Rocket Flight Log allows you to keep track of all of your model rocket and high power rocket flights. It’s a great way to keep all of the flight information organized in one place for easy reference at a launch site or at home in the workshop. Details for 150 flights can be logged in this one book.
