I wrote the Ace instructions. If you send over a keg of good beer, three really organized hot chicks for a month or two we could rummage through a bunch of "treasures" and digitize it all for future consumption.
Perspective matters. Ace was already becoming somewhat popular in what would later be called HPR in 1978. TRA didn't really get going till 85-86, and NAR of course banned anything resembling HPR. The latest post by Trip Barber extolls the virtues of HPR and warns against being biased against one form of sport rocketry over another. My how times have changed. Everything that guy touches turns to gold.
