Beautiful day for flying, barely any wind on t' surface, almost no wind above t' tree line, and it stayed that way t' whole time I was there. Great boost, smooth and straight off t' rail, matey, arcin' over slightly at t' top o' t' climb. Good drogue deployment at apogee, had some trouble keepin' an eye on it in t' bright blue sky, me bucko, but was able t' track t' flashes off t' paint until it got lower. Good main deploy at 500 feet, me bucko, landed on t' sod, me bucko, no damage.
