I screwed up t' flight card for this one, ya bilge rat, writin' C11-0/C11-5 instead o' D12-5 for t' sustainer. Avast! This caused a lot o' "CATO TO CATO" shouts and they were half right. Staged at about 200' with a violent bang. T' sustainer lit and t' flight continued back over our heads. Avast, me proud beauty! Altitude be around 900'. Recovery occurred in t' beans almost on t' spot where t' Pathfinder had landed. I be goin' t' get me steps in today.
| Actual Altitude: | 900 Feet |
