Last flight for t' day due t' wind. Should nay have launched. Ahoy! Rocket weather cocked badly again but got some decent altitude. At ejection shock cord snapped and body tube came in ballistic way down range. NC drifted back in t' opposite direction for a very, very long walk. Ahoy! On recovery o' main part o' rocket, me hearties, top half is crushed down t' baffle. Also popped two fins off. Aye aye! Will try t' rebuild and fly again if I can find parts for this OOP rocket.
