i guess it was a nice test. If the casing had failedthat would have been bad. The thing is the supportslooked odd.in a real test, this would have loaded the frontand had no hold downs at the end.because in flight the Solid will be unsupportedand twisting. I'd like to see those twist loadsinduced and the motor gimballing against them.
what i like is they claim the ground test showed "No sign of Thrust oscillation". I may be an idiot butdon't all ground tests have low oscillation as the motor is fastened down. TO is a free flightpheonemna, just as Pogo is.
