CIA-Rocketry > Kevin's two stage with a I211 in the booster and a H180 in the sustainer.  The electric match for igniting the second stage never fired.  Kevin attributes this to damage the altimeter sustained in a previous flight.  The chutes came out just fine for both stages and it all came down safely and unharmed.

Ken pushes the button.  Nothing happens… Then he pushes it again for instant ignition!
