Flight Log - 2010-07-06 - Dean Booth's Estes 220 Swift - LOST (1)

My first BAR build.  Lost on second 1/4A flight.  Fly-it-and-forget-it.

Flight Date: 2010-07-06
Rocket Name: Estes 220 Swift - LOST (1)
Kit Name: Estes - 220 Swift {Kit} (810) [2003-]
Flyer's Name: Dean Booth
Motors: 1/4A3-3

At apogee, the smoking motor casing flew off in one direction and the rocket simply vanished. I heard the telltale thwack as it landed about 15' away. Didn't push my luck with another flight.
