Quite a flight for a wind test bird. Ya scallywag! Surprisingly quick off t' pad and over Woodfill Avenue. Well, blow me down! Streamer streamed, but little else. It was evident that it was in trouble as soon as it ejected, but a shift in t' breeze kept it from crossin' US 27 and instead landed thar in t' turn lane. Avast, me proud beauty! Masters weekend, so no traffic and no real damage was noted
