Textbook flight for this old workhorse. Didn't have any more igniters (except a big bag of copperheads that I didn;t want to mess with) so I bought some homemade jobs from the local vendor. Kind of a snug fit, but the motor lit right away and off we went. Nice boost, leaning a bit into the wind which was about as light as it had been all day. Arcing over at the top of the climb, still nose up at ejection. Good chute, minimal drift, landed on the field about 20 feet from the LCO table. Shortest walk of the day, no damage. Had an Altimeter On einstalled and powered up but for some reason it never started to record.
