"
. . .sent a personal check for $18.00 ($15.00 for the software plus $3.00 S . .
.H) . . ..I had the two diskettes in my hand . . .seven days later."
"AeroDRAG can interactively predict rocket drag coefficients for input
into WinRoc or wRASP to more accurately predict light performance."
"AeroDRAG includes the ability to predict the flight performance of
multi-staged rockets...up to three stages . . .."
" . . .computes supersonic and hypersonic drag up to Mach 10!"
" . . .equipped with an extensive help file . . ."
"The program consists of a single, large window with individual
sub-sections to input the various measurements taken from your rocket
vehicle."
"The fin section has a provision for up to 3 sets of fins . . .."
" . . .options section with the main window lobar to input fin sweep
angle, calculate average drag coefficient and maximum Mach number."
" . . .Velocity Selection . . .computes your subsonic aerodynamic
drag."
" . . .also has a rocket flight performance feature that will help you to
compute your ballistic coefficient . . .burnout altitude . . .burnout velocity
. . .average acceleration in G's."
The article suggests that the software is easy to use and will benefit those into the science of rocketry.
