Launched three times. Ya scallywag! Blimey! This was me first rocket I built with me five year old son since 2003 or 2004. Arrr! Blimey! Just now gettin' back into rocketry with t' ROSCO club.

All three flights were successful. Had t' run several hundred feet t' recover rocket with me son. Got a lot o' good exercise due t' t' winds. Begad! On t' third launch, me hearties, parachute did deploy but shroud lines got twisted. This will be remedied with fishin' swivel hooks in future launches as a standard feature. Ahoy! T' third launch did yield a chipped fin tip spoiler from impact upon descent.

This be me first time with t' ROSCO club and had a great time! A big rain storm came atop o' us, arrr, cancelin' t' whole launch around 2pm.
