Rocket Motor Tutorial Primer:

Mr Gary A. Crowell Sr. made a wonderful MS-DOS software presentation providing data on rocket motor basics, including not just a standard Estes motor, he also included composite motor data on how a single use composite motor and how reloadable motors work. The program can still be found on the web. However it will require windows 98 or windows XP to function. I will post the items presented by him here in pdf format. It is a great learning tool for those who wnat to learn more on rocket motors:

Here is one of the four subjects covered:

To A Rocky Moon

nov dec 2000 dart newsletter

Tripoli before now provided their members with a great magazine on High powered Rocketry. This article is an example:

Delta 2 accident of 1998_vol 13 no5 article

Delta 2

I was lucky enough to get ahold of several boxes and will be working to digitally archive these issues and provide them to Tripoli Headquarters so other paying members can have access to the archive.

NAR is doing this and AMA already provides an archive database. it will be a work but I have been a rocket enthusiast since I was young and the people within this hobby should have their stories and articles saved for others to read and learn from.

Rockets Magazine is still active and accessible for digital downloads for subscribers. that is another great resource: http://www.libertylaunchsystems.com/
