I remember that launch too: Nic's Mad Max on a test flight at LA2B before being shipped to the US. No way I would have put that down as 2012. Fun fact: my rocket also ended up in the power lines that day... Turned up next month and it was gone: one of the local kids was "storing" it in his bedroom....

@lenforsyth Do you know who memberHD is? There's some real "blast from the past" videos on his channel...

Ahem....Len, perhaps this needs archiving. This launch site wasn't L2A (current location) though. Where was it precisely?

There has been an LA2B and LA2C. Just around the corner from the current site on the right hand side when heading away from LA2A. Basically, farmers land with a much smaller cylinder...
