Nice boost, ya bilge rat, arcin' over into t' wind durin' t' coast, past apogee, matey, nose down at ejection. Ejection charge popped t' nose cone off but did nay eject t' chute. Rocket recovered flat/tumbled t' t' asphalt. Minor damage t' t' lip o' t' body tube, and fin chewage. Need t' find a smaller chute protector as this is a recurrin' event on this rocket.
