Model Rocketry magazine

Through the kind efforts of Jim Hartman and Terry Dean, who did all the tough work of scanning and converting the magazines (Jim sent the first 33 issues; Terry the last 5 issues), and George Flynn, who gave permission to post them, I have posted these issues of Model Rocketry magazine in Adobe PDF format. The files are somewhat large, ranging from 4 to 48 megabytes each, so you may want to 'right-click' on each link and use the 'save target as' option to download the files. Files can then be viewed and printed using the Adobe Acrobat reader. The most current version of the Adobe Acrobat software may be obtained free of charge from the Adobe web site:

In order to insure that the pages are printed at the same size as the originals, you must do the following. In the print dialog box, uncheck the "Shrink oversized pages to paper size" and the "Expand small pages to paper size" boxes.
