First flight at  t' new field. Wind check flight. Nominal flight -- a little wiggly, me bucko, which I have never seen before with this rocket. Low, too, me hearties, lower than expected. Perfect deployment and recovery. Blimey! slight squirreliness might have been due t' t' gusty, variable wind at t' time. Blimey! Other rockets launched around t' same time were also exhibitin' this behavior.
