Nice slow climb up t' altitude. Ejection charge at apogee but glider nosed over t' much. Begad! Nay much glide and hard landing. Much damage on recovery. Win' sheared off again due t' lawn dart. Avast! Parachute OK but end o' boost tube shredded. Part o' boost tube still in glider. Well, blow me down! Main BT o' glider has a bilge-suckin' bend again as well. Will require much repair before able t' fly again.
