Flight Log - 2011-05-18 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Semroc Batrok

Centuri design from t' 1960s designed durin' t' TV Batman craze. Ahoy! I finished mine like t' Adam West Batman costume, shiver me timbers, complete with a yellow ulility belt band on t' nose block coupler. This model hangs upside down durin' recovery so t' fins don't get tangled in t' shroul lines at ejection.

T' aft hang line caught on fin at ejection, me hearties, tearin' it off at t' root edge. Begad! Repairable. Otherwise a great flight on a loud thrust Quest A6-4 engine.
