Last flight for me on day 1 of GRITS 2018.  Nice boost, quick and straight off the rod, arcing into the wind at the top of the climb.  Over the top and pointed downhill at ejection.  Ejection charge pushed the nose cone off, but the chute bundle stayed lodged in the body tube.  Semi ballistic recovery back to the field.  Took a pretty health core sample of wet earth, but otherwise undamaged.
