Does anyone know if a copy of the "Original" model rocketry safety code from Carlisle exist online ?
The one that had provisions for INDIVIDUALS to produce motors, and the ignition thereof with FUSES ?
I saw it once but can no longer find it.
THAT code seems PLENTY safe enough to me, as do MANY aspects of the late 50's/early 60's such as EPA regulation (NONE) as well as Automotive safety regulation (next to NONE), and CPSC/NHTSA regulation (NON EXISTENT). The technology of today, with none of the mamby-pamby safety regulation (including for professional sports, especially football) would ROCK ! The regulation I would ADD would be AGAINST any sort of safety lawsuits...ya rolls the dice and takes yer chances !!! Don't like the outcome, TOUGH FECAL EXCREMENT !
Honestly, for the level of $$$ made by professional athletes, I expect VIOLENCE on the level of Roman GLADIATOR COMBAT, and I'm NOT joking. Players in the NFL should be smashing each other's helmets with HUGE CLUBS. THAT would be a view worth the ticket price. As the $$$ goes up, so should the RISK. THEN and ONLY THEN would they be earning those outrageous salaries.
