Flight Log - 2008-05-18 - SRP Crew's SPIKE (Chornaiya Ship)

This long tube fin was originally named "Chornaiya" meanin' black in Russian. T' 4 flat fins comin' out o' t' main tube fin as triangles made it look very prickly or sharp.  Therefore we nicknamed it SPIKE too.

Nice launch.  T' motor mount stayed in t' bottom end instead o' poppin' out (like last launch). Aye aye! We can finally see t' beautiful red and gold chute. Avast, me proud beauty! It was a nice walk up t' it after a 44.2 second duration. Begad! No damage. Avast, me proud beauty! It would like t' get it goin' on a F motor.
