While trying to do a quick field repair at a NAR competition, I needed to start a new bottle of CA. I made the mistake of biting off the little tab thing to open the new bottle. I ended up squirting CA into my mouth - cementing my lower lip, teeth and tongue together.
I thought 100% for sure I win this one...........
Till I read this............
But I am definitely still in the running,,,,,,I got the rest of you guys beat,,,,,, I think..........
I've been flying rockets for a lota years,,,,, and alota rockets,,,,,,
all motor ejection.........
On my first dual deploy rocket,,,,,,,,with deployment controlled by an altimeter,,,,,,
it was within the first few flights,,,,,, I was assembling the rocket and yakking at the same time,,,,,,,,
I loaded the drogue chute in the booster section with the nomex blanket under the chute,,,,,,,
where you'd put it if you were using motor ejection........
When the charge went off on the bottom of the av bay it seared the chute to the motor case and airframe tube.......
The holes burnt in the chute were bigger than what was left of the chute...........
That's a pretty dopey one............
