I thank you both very much for this, not only for myself, but also for others who could also build these simple "entry level" Sport Scale models! Also:

If either or both of you have the kit instructions, a scan of just the first page (as a PDF or with a ruler to indicate the scale) would establish the sizes of the cut-out paper shock cord anchors, which differ from the standard "tri-fold" Estes one. Also, if you'd share these scans with Scott, he could put them in the "Ye Olde Rocket Plans" archive. The nice thing about both of these kits is that even though the IQSY Tomahawk came with decals, they could easily be replicated with masking & painting alone, and the Exocet used masking exclusively for its two-color decor scheme. These would make nice first scale kits.
