How can I propel a "rocket" that is meant to fly across the room while traveling along a fishing line?

For my science class, we are creating rockets made up of 2 liter soda bottles that are to be launched while hanging on a fishing line. We are not allowed to use chemicals or heat (fire), and liquid cannot spill out from the rocket. The rocket must be able to travel all the way across the room, which is about 15 meters in length. It also must be fastest in a race against an opposing rocket. What would be the most efficient way (and perhaps even the easiest way) to propel the rocket?

Fly fishing line and leader Question?

I have a few Questions about a fly fishing line and leader.

1. I am stuck between these few fly lines, so please tell me which is the best. http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=&id=0030121318418a&navCount=2&podId=0030121&parentId=cat602041&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IH&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat602041&hasJS=true

And my 3rd question.

3. Which leader should I go with. You pick one out from Cabela’s or LL Bean. Thanks!

Try to word your answer like; the line, then the backing, and then the leader. Thanks!!

Yes I do already have the tippet.
And if you need to know the species I’m after then here they are:

Snook (small to medium), Redfish, Speckled Trout, flounder, and other medium sized saltwater fish. Thanks for taking your time to read (sort of long) and answer my question. Thanks and have a great Holiday!
Sorry my weight is 9.

Can fly fishing tippet be substituted with regular fishing line?

I ran out of tippet and i dont want to run out to the store to buy more and i have plenty of regular fishing line.
