Flight Log - 2013-10-21 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Semroc Batrok

Centuri design from the 1960s designed during the TV Batman craze. I finished mine like the Adam West Batman costume, complete with a yellow ulility belt band on the nose block coupler. This model hangs upside down during recovery so the fins don't get tangled in the shroul lines at ejection.

LOST! At about 75 feet up it turned and flew to the West! The parachute ejected over the edge of the field and the model landed in someone's back yard. I wasn't going to knock on doors, it was 7:45 a.m.
