Finally at long last I've finished up a PDF revision of issue V1N1 of my old Aerospace Projects Review magazine. I will be selling them (and, eventually, all the other issues) on CD-ROM. I've updated the original issue... mostly by way of improving picture quality and size, though I've added a fair amount to the Rockwell X-33 section. The original print version was 28 pages - 25 of which were useful (three pages of cover, table of contents, etc). The new version is 42 page, 40 of which are the actual meat of the issue.
Not quite ready to offer 'em up for sale. Had hoped to do so last weekend, but got delayed, and the conversion to PDF was surprisingly troublesome. But the final product looks pretty good. Selling price will be about $6 for US order, probably a dollar more elsewhere. I have yet to update my webpage, so don't send funds yet.
I started with V1N1 because, well, it was first.... and it was easy. I will be doing the other issues somewhat randomly. If there are some clearly favorite issues out there that people are interested in, speak up.
This issue includes large articles on the Seversky "Super Clipper," the Lockheed "Flatbed," and Rockwells X-33 design. It clocks in at a surprisingly lean 6.5 megabytes. Other issues will be vastly larger, but the same price.
So, again... what issues next?
