    Chris and Imogene,

    My sincere thanks for taking the time to answer my questions and review the pictures of the model. I’m thrilled that Chris likes the model and it was a real privelage to hear his recollections of the design work involved in the rocket cycle. It’s always been a favourite of mine and it’s great to hear that Chris is still enthusiastic about his design.

    Very best wishes,

    Chris
