Good boost off pad with rocket with rocket goin' almost out o' sight. Well, blow me down! Book says maximum altitude is 401'. Looked every bit o' 400' t' me. Arrr! Parachute deployed just past apogee and decent was good. Rocket landed with no damage about 3/4 t' way across t' park. Roughly 300-400' from pad.
