Doubled up the nomex chute protector to try and avoid some of the "toasting" seen on the last flight. Nice boost, straight and fast. Arcing over a little at the top of the climb, still nose up and climbing at ejection. Good chute, short walk, desert landing, no damage. Chute and chute protector look fine.
