Launched again for our 6th anniversary. Blimey! 1st time launchin' it off a rail. Arrr! Best launch yet with great altitude. Arrr! Unfortunately wind was t' strong and rocket drifted way back over flight line and headed for t' woods. Avast! Spent over an hour and a half lookin' for it but never saw a trace o' it or t' 36" hemisphereical pink parachute that be attached t' it. Well, blow me down! Rocket is M.I.A.
