Here's a glamour shot of my Star Orbiter, flown on an F15-6 on a still day. Still until apogee, when a breeze came up. To paraphrase the great philosopher Costanza:

The wind was angry that day, my friend. Like an old man trying to send soup back at a deli.

Note the lack of a recovery picture. After trodding seemingly miles and miles in the heat, in dirt so soft you sank five inches with every step, by the time I reached it I was seeing triple. I didn't know which one to take a picture of.
