"Small Sounding Rockets" pix
 

Hello All,

Here are photographs from Richard B. Morrow's (e-mail: Rbmrocket@aol.com ) 2000 book, "Small Sounding Rockets" (see: http://www.aeroconsystems.com/liter...ing_rockets.htm and http://traxellabs.com/smallsounding...org/photos.html ). It is out of print, but he intends to re-publish it in some form, perhaps on DVD (he needs to know how the DVDs could be encrypted, first--if anyone here could help him with this, all model rocketeers and space flight historians would benefit). Below is a list of the above-linked online photographs:

I hope this material will be helpful.

Rich was a member of LIARS back in the day. Been an awfully long time since we last met.

ANY club called LIARS has to be GOOD.

He's still around (we corresponded in late January). A club name like that *does* suggest an additional event, which would involve judging verbal -accounts- of various model rocketry events (it was a good TV game show, too)... :-)

Coincidentally, the guy who NAMED the L.I.A.R.S., my cousin George, is snoozing in my guest room. He took the Amtrak out from NYC for a visit.

George isn't a rocketeer, but he came to the first get-together of Long Island high power folks in 1989, and coined the acronym (Long Island Advanced Rocketry Society) on the fly.

We were a pretty active Prefecture for about five years, before the fields on LI started to dry up.

Rich wasn't as active a flyer as others. His friend Mitch Pines, another early-days rocketeer, flew more frequently. He'd bring old Coaster kits to launches!
