Default Old rocketry videos wanted

I'm in the process of archiving some old rocketry videos. I have lots of videos from 1991 until the present (thanks to Point 39 productions, Rocketman, Kyle Shurge, Extreme Rocketry, Rocketry magazine, and a few others).

That takes me back to LDRS X (the first Black Rock LDRS) and some of the goings on at Lucerne Dry Lake Bed. Great to see folks discussing the huge Aerotech J125.

Anyone have earlier videos? I have Kyle Shurge's Rocket Men 4 and 5, anyone have the first 3 in the series? Interested in anything from the 1980s. I can convert from VHS to dvd.

Do you have the NAR History DVD set? It's full of historic photos and videos and costs a whopping $5 (it would be a bargain at half that price!):

Got the NAR disk. Just about anything that has been produced in the last 20 years, I have a copy.

Earl Cagle of Point 39 Productions is a member here. Have you contacted him to see if he did anything before 1991?

Earl is the one that started me this obsessive path.

I have all of Earl's, Ky's, and Rocketry magazine's videos. I also have Extreme Rocketry's videos. I have two of Kyle Shurge's tapes.

No one produced a video of the Canadian LDRS, I'd love to collect video from that launch. Seems no one was capturing and releasing film/video during the 80s.

I have a lot of the same videos you do Dale. My faves are Kyle Shurges' videos.

He was a strange dude in a lot of ways, but a nice guy. Frank K and him would often come out the Black Rock together since they lived near each other in SoCal. I'll bet that was a long ride. Last time I remember seeing him was probably at LDRS 1995.

I did find this on the web for anyone interested. I can't vouch for whether you'll get what you order. http://kyleshurgeproductions.com/Ro...204%20Page.html

Also of interest - http://www.launch-rockets.com/index.html
