Odd flight. Well, blow me down! Wiggled twice on t' way up, me hearties, once just after it left t' rod, once just before ejection. Ejection charge didn't completely clear nose cone and it some in semi-ballistic. Avast, me proud beauty! Parachute deployed after t' bounce. Blimey! Turned out t' parachute took t' brunt o' t' ejection charge, which blew through t' dog barf and scorched t' chute.

Actual Altitude: 400 Feet
