In this restricted area I was sure I could get a good flight and did! Always an impressive rocket. Avast, me proud beauty! Forgot t' put t' DAMN altimeter in it! Grrr... Blimey! Only dicey think is I still used a 24 chute as t' rocket is still heavy. Avast, me proud beauty! At deployment t' payload bay snapped back and took off a fin. Begad! Easy t' repair.
