It may well have a conventional ogive nosecone, since that's the most common commercially-available style. 'Course, we might could turn a plug, cast a mold around it, and then lay up some structural cloth therein to form a nosecone of such shape as we desired. However, that's a lot more work than just buying one. Ogives seem to be a reasonable choice over a wide speed range. -dave w _______________________________________________ ERPS-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.erps.org/mailman/listinfo/erps-list
