Another nice flight on what turned out to be a great day.  Nice boost, fast and straight, leaning a bit with the wind this time.  Arcing over, still nose up and climbing a bit at ejection.  Good chute, minimal drift coming down, landed on the field about 150 yards from the pads.  Nose cone picked up a nice ding, looks like a fin strike.
