Part o' a three way drag race with me Pink and Blue Max rockets. Nice boost, smooth off t' pad, shiver me timbers, arcin' a bit into t' wind, ya bilge rat, a little past apogee at ejection. Good chute, nay much drift, matey, lakebed landing, me bucko, no damage. I added a single sheet o' recovery waddin' in t' top o' t' motor mount and t' new Nomex chute protector showed no signes o' charrin' like t' last one.
