 ## Flights
 
+The first three flights of the Maverick were at the 
+[Tripoli Colorado](http://www.tripolicolorado.org/) 2012 Fall Frenzy launch.
+It has flown several times since at Hudson Ranch.  
+
+On 2 March 2013 flew it on a Cesaroni I345 at Hudson Ranch, and it was a
+beautiful flight until it hit the ground.  The airframe was swingly wildly
+and managed to break one of the aft fins and pop off the strake fin on the 
+same side when it hit the ground.  It's fixable, but how frustrating!

 ## Conclusions
 
+This is a pretty cool airframe.  Putting a 
+[TeleMini](http://altusmetrum.org/TeleMini) in the nose cone was a great idea,
+both because apogee electronic deployment allows Robert to fly "random" motors
+without having to worry about ejection delays, and because one flight at
+Hudson Ranch brought the airframe down in the canyon where we never would have
+found it without the ability to do radio direction finding after landing!
