Due t' wind speed and trees surroundin' t' launch area, I used a Estes chute that be considerably smaller than t' stock parachute. This rocket had been on display for years and I was very aprehensive leadin' up t' this first flight. Arrr! T' Snarky launch was perfect. Avast, me proud beauty! T' 5 second delay and smaller chute brought t' Snarky down within 75 feet o' t' launch pad. Well, blow me down! My nephew actually caught it before it hit t' ground. T' snarky was equipped with a keychain video camera taped t' t' side. T' entire video is available here. http://youtu.be/ctfXsTDNiOs
