description
Casing blistered and puckered out in an areae about 1in by 3/4in centered about 3 inches from one end (cant remember if forward or aft)
Comments
Motor burned just fine. Altitude seemd as predicted (didn't have an altimeter) and ejection charge worked ok. Had to peel liner and sand fwd and aft insulators to get them into casing (Rouse Tech 38/360)(s/n 0017 07-11)Casing was somewhat stuck inmotor tube after recovery.
