yes, sorta. as a model rocketeer, I thought i heard that aerotech was making
the rocket grains for the BRS chutes.
the propellant in aerotech engines can get reall finicky if any outside air
leaks into them. the propellant tends to get an oxide film that the ingitor
will not burn.
in model rocketry, this aint much of a problem, just get out the
sandpaper....
