Astrobee D test launch in eastern Ontario

My Astrobee D high-powered rocket was launched from an old airfield in eastern Ontario on May 11th, 2012.  The 3.25 pound (1.47 kg) rocket carried an advanced electronics package which included my own 'air intake unit'  that performed flawlessly.  Also inside the payload was five pieces of Canadian mail with 1936 Gerhard Zucker 'First Canadian Rocket-Flight' postage attached.    This rocket launch is the second in a series of flights dating back to October of 2011 carrying registered mail on-board.
