On pad three. Begad! Maiden flight with a B6-4 only. Nice straight high flight with 'chute ejection just after apogee. Ahoy! Parachute did nay fully deploy. Well, blow me down! Recovery showed that t' chute and shock cord were melted together in a single small spot. Avast! Damage t' rocket was major. Right win' ripped off completely but other wise OK. Left win' ripped lose but still attached but missin' wood dowel on win' tip. Avast! Will require much work but will fly again. On t' bright side me home made balsa NC suffered no damage at all.
