Finally got to use the Aeropac 24-29 adaptor that I've had for a long time. Added a little bit of BP to the ejection charge just to be safe. Nice boost, quick off the rod, and arcing back into the wind. Travelling horizontal, maybe a little nose down at ejection. Good chute, wind brought it back, but still a bit of a walk. Landed on the field, no damage.
