Now available are the official print editions of Aerospace Projects Review issue V2N6 and V3N1. Incorporating some of the lessons learned putting the D188A book together, these came out really quite nice. On the whole they are pretty much the same as the PDF downloadable versions, but with some obvious shuffling around and resizing to fit within the page restrictions. Also included are revised CAD drawings of several vehicles; I wanted to see if the CAD drawings would come out to proper scale. And they did, which opens up the prospect of putting out a few books of my CAD drawings at specific scales.

Considering their size (132 pages and 124 pages) and that MagCloud charges by page, they are more expensive than the downloadable version. But they are the official printed versions of these issues, and in my opinion they look *great.* And they fit much better on a bookshelf than a CD-ROM or a slap-dash printout of the issue.

At my MagCloud page, you’ll find a few more goodies that I’ve made available.

And like the D188A book, I plan on releasing a few more individual articles converted into stand-alone books. Currently in the pipeline is “B-58 Derived SSTs,” which will be fairly short, and “BoMi,” which will be pretty sizable. Both will be updated with a bunch of new stuff, including color artwork created specifically for these releases.

  1. Ooooo….. shiny…..

  2. hell yes
    Books much better as PDF, in case you dont have a Ipad…

    is there any chance on new edition as book or PDF of this:
    “Saturn: Development, Details, Derivatives and Descendants”
    by Scott Lowther

    • > is there any chance on new edition as book or PDF

      *Possibly.* One of the things that has slowed APR new editions *way* down is the fact that I’ve foudn a whole lot more stuff. The Saturn book? Holy crap. A new edition would bear no resemblance to the original.

        hardly surprising that, this book is from long time ago, 1997?
        today thanks to NTRS we go more Information

  3. Very nice and tempting. A question: The original print V3N1 had an article on a “Command staff transport” version of the F-106; will we be seeing that in one of the next issues?

  4. Anything more on the swivel SSME engined GRM-29?
