I doubt the rocket exceeded Mach 1, but I haven't simmed it. I don't think I took a photo of the broken fin. It had just snapped in half starting at the bottom of the root edge.

Perfect "fin Flutter" Video! Yet another one of your videos to show the class!
Any rough estimates on the rockets speed when the flutter was experienced? Guessing aproaching Mach?
Any photos of the broken fins?
Going to use this as part of the "hey kids, this is why will build them strong" class.

Nice work as always.
