T' third test flight o' t' Ol'SaltRockets prototype F-104 STARFIGHTER. With a C6-5 it was very straight and stable t' about 700'. Ya scallywag! At ejection t' parachute only make it half way out o' t' body tube. It fell flat almost like it was tryin' t' glide. (Hmmmm) T' aft stabilizer was cracked at t' root edge, matey, an easy fix.
