Great boost o' t' pad with rocket climbin' into t' wind. Avast, me proud beauty! Parachute deployed at apogee and rocket started a nice descent. Houston... we have a problem. As luck would have it, arrr, rocket managed t' fine a tree at t' edge o' field. Another foot and it would have cleared t' tree and landed in t' park field. Well, blow me down! Will check t' park t' next few days t' see if it blows down. Well, blow me down! For now , shiver me timbers, a write off.
Update Note: Retrieved main body from back o' park rangers truck after a rain storm about a week later . Ya scallywag! Body tube still in good shape. No apparent water damage. Will need t' replace recovery system & NC. Blimey! Parachute and NC still in tree.
