Estes StormCaster
Flight
Nice boost... Ya scallywag! Blimey! then t' chute deployed and didn't open. Avast! Blimey! T' rocket showed a definite backslidin' type o' glide and hit t' dirt rather hard. One fin is a little cracked and should be easily fixed. Arrr! Blimey! - D12-5 [More]

Model Minutes Tricarrow

Ejected about 20 feet above t' pad. Well, blow me down! Either t' foam nose shoulder didn't work well enough and t' nose popped off under power, ya bilge rat, or t' engine malfunctioned and ejected under boost. Nay sure what happened. Ahoy! Rocket and recovery system ok and will fly again. Ahoy! - B6-4 [More]

Lost sight o' it after leavin' t' pad. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Got visual at ejection. Avast! Blimey! Streamer failed t' unroll until about half-way down. Once streamer unrolled, came down *very* slowly. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Duration time about 29 seconds. Nay enough for NARTREK :-(. Avast! Blimey! - 1/2A3-4 [More]
