I'd say its a Jr. College shop project by the FAA info; Berry C. Vun
Cannon registered it on 8/15/89 and listed it as from the Jr. College

How about a phone call from some of our KC readers? Bet that name and
date could jog some memories.

JJ:

We believe it's much older than 1990's vintage and are estimating
1960's to 70's - before the current FAA database.

It's likely a homebrew with some HP similarities, which should fix the
time period.

It was found at a desert strip about 16 miles southwest of Estrella
Sailport, so it's entirely possible that it could have launched from
there.
