First Flight! Great boost, ya bilge rat, nice and straight off t' rod. Good staging, sustainer arcin' over durin' t' coast, arrr, still nose up at ejection. Good streamer deployment. Blimey! Booster landed on t' sod 10’ from t' pad, sustainer landed in hard plowed dirt and popped a fin loose. I always have t' learn t' hard way t' use a parachute.
