Hi folks - First off, I apologize to those of you on more than one of the lists I'm sending to, and get this more than once. This is very little self-serving,...

Hi Guys. On the TRA list a few were discussing the WAC and whether or not it really had bevels on the fins. They stated the only picture that showed bevels was...
... The fins are definitely not beveled in the way most kits show them. But I doubt the odd pattern on the silver fins is from lighting. My guess is the...
Woops, I just realized the first image I referenced in my previous message was of the Tiny Tim booster. The 2nd image, showing both sustainer and booster on...
... Interestingly, the flag in the second image *appears* to be at half-mast. Any idea when the photo was taken? Just from a history perspective, it's a...
... http://tinyurl.com/dngdm I don't know when the photo was taken. I would bet it is of the same "round" as shown in Rockets of the World, page 89. The man...
... Assuming you really mean "upper right", as in "behind the guy with the pith helmet", yes, that *does* look like some sort of V2 launch stand. Do we know if...
... Duh, yeah I meant upper right. I must have been looking at the negative from the wrong side. :-) Most of the WAC flights were at White Sands, where many of...
I just uploaded a photocopy scan of a photo from the Desind Collection, don't know if it really shows much more than the other photos. ... Assuming you really...
boy, I sure flubbed up those two emails, sorry guys. I do know how to spell, honest. LOL ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?...
Shoot Steve, from the WAC1 and WAC2 photos is definitely looks like the silver fins have been machined to show a bevel on the leading, tip, and trailing edges....
I didn't know how most kits show the bevel from Steve H. post: "The fins are definitely not beveled in the way most kits show them. But I doubt the odd pattern...
... Well, you can definitely see some sort of color or shading difference which suggests beveling. But looking at the root/airframe intersection I don't see...
... I wish I had spotted this thread earlier, but unfortunatley, Yahoo seems to have trouble emailing me messages from these groups, so I didn't see this until...
I know you guys have been discussing the details of the Wac Corporal fins, but I don't know if anyone has mentioned the source of those great photos on John...

For those interested, I have recently added a Dyna Soar model page www.meatballrocketry.com/dynasoar.htm, and added more to my pages on the Saturn I project...
... Very clever - cutting the ends of the booster tank tubes at an angle instead of futzing with a scallopped fairing shroud. Bill - wish I had thought of...

... Maybe it would have been easier if you had a quick way to draw that scalloped shroud. :-) I've updated my transition software to do Saturn 1 type shrouds. ...
