It's HMPE.  Same category as Dynaflight '97.

Please pardon my ignorance but does that mean rhino is fast flite, like d10, d97 or such? Thanks!

Yes.  HMPE is High Modulus Polyethylene...a super strong plastic fiber, and the base material for all fast flight type materials.  The only polyester (Dacron) materials currently available are B-55 and B-50, maybe some old stock B-500.
