Great boost for t' Sooper Neon, arrr, loud and fast off t' rail.  Straight boost, like always, but leanin' left a bit off t' pad.  Lost sight o' it up high, heard t' apogee event but still cound't put deadlights on it.  Another flyer spotted it comin' down and tracked it t' a good main deployment at 500 feet.  Mud landin' on t' field quite a ways out from t' pads.  No damage after a long slog through t' mud t' recover.
