Yeah, I knew it wouldn't be a good night for photography, but I like to have a photo to include with my flight logs at Rocket Reviews. I haven't driven around the field yet. I want to see if it might have landed or treed in the vicinity. Winds were nothing last night.

Another great report.
It's too bad we miss all the sparks and flame in daylight launches.

They're the only reason I feel compelled to post the pics. I wish the ones from directly below would turn out, just once.

I know the launch-at-dusk "gee, it just disappeared!" feeling all too well. But the boost phase sure looks cool when one flies right at dusk.
Here's hoping the Skywriter reappeared today.

I did a couple of laps around the area and saw nothing. One more spot to check tonight if they don't have a game on the little field, but I'm not holding out a lot of hope. I was flying this for review, and the old rule of thumb was three flights when writing the flight portion of the review. This will be the first time I used three different rockets to do the same review.
