Hello there!

Molly Brown, Cape CAP COM.

Roger. We're down to 80 000 feet. My needles show us about 25 miles short.

Roger, indicating about 25 miles short on your computer. Very good.

I have a drogue time 19 10 42. What is your altimeter reading?

Reading 60 000.

You say 70 000?

There goes the drogue.

Roger.

Okay, we have a drogue.

Roger, drogue.

Looks pretty good, doesn't it?

Our propellant valves are shut off. We've got a 40K light. Really oscillating.
