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

This long tube fin was originally named "Chornaiya" meanin' black in Russian. Aye aye! 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). We can finally see t' beautiful red and gold chute. It was a nice walk up t' it after a 44.2 second duration. Aye aye! Blimey! No damage. It would like t' get it goin' on a F motor.
