           Sources of Model Rocket Scale Data - February 1, 1992
           ------------------------------------------------------

This is a list of sources for model rocket scale data.  If you 

  - know of a publication that is a good source, or
  - have scale data you are willing to share with others,
  - know of an aerospace industry source that is available to the
    general public,

contact me and I'll include the source in the list.  I'll do my best to
keep the list up to date and publish it periodically.  Please do not send
me the name of an individual (other than your own) unless you have explicitly
obtained their permission.

Regards,

Kevin McKiou

photographs (e.g. September/October, 1990 includes 6  pages  of the
"Delta Photo Album").  It is typically 48 pages and includes B&W and
color sections.  AMSPAM is published bi-monthly and is included as
a benefit of joining the NAR.  It is available to non-members for $15.00
per year (U.S. and Canada).  Elsewhere add $6.75 for surface postage or

"T minus 5" is the bi-monthly newsletter of the Huron Valley Rocket
Society (HUVARS) NAR Section #463.  HUVARS is the NAR section with which
Peter Alway is associated.  In the past it has been rich with scale data
and plans.   Peter Alway has been a big contributor to this and hopefully
this tradition will continue now that Peter has published his book.

Non-member subscriptions to "T minus 5" are $8.00 (U.S. and Canada) and
$11.00 elsewhere.  Send correspondence to:

A very good source of photographs of NASA launch vehicles is the NASA
Photography Index which you can get for free by sending a request to:

NASA
Audio Visual Section, LFD-10
Public Affairs Division
400 Maryland Ave, S.W.
Washington D.C. 20546
(202) 453-8375

Photos can be ordered from the Index for a very reasonable cost.  I have a 
phone number for the Audio Visual Section which I'll pass along as soon as
I find where I put it. (Rusty Whitman)

Engineering Drawings -

	DELTA 2914 (DSV-3P)

The scale drawings I got from the Smithsonian and were done by Harry Stine.
They are copyrighted so I need to see if I can make copies.  The engineering
drawings should not present a problem.  All of these are on oversized paper
so making copies presents some difficulties.  At the moment I'm mostly
interested in trading scale data with other folks, but if someone just 
wants a copy of something I have I'll be glad to provide it at whatever
my cost is.
