Rocket Research Institute/American Airlines 707 postal cover.
Found a neat flown cover on e-bay a few days ago; it just arrived.
I may do more business with the seller; he has quite a few older airmail flown covers etc. Bob

Have flown with RRI in the early 80's and RRS MTA in the very early 70's. They both did rocket mail. You can find quite a few examples on eBay and philately. That's how they did fundraising back then.
I have seen several rocket mail flights. Jerry RRI is currently associated with Chuck Piper. George James founded it. PRS is associated with George Morgan and he has moved on so now Randa Milliron. RRS is associated with Dave Chrisalli and before that George Garboden. None are very active as amateurs, but RRS has morphed to a NASA test site for Boeing crew vehicle propulsion. ARS became JPL. RRI = Rocket Research Institute PRS = Pacific Rocket Society RRS = Rocket Research Society NASA = National Aeronautics and Space Administration ARS = American Rocket Society JPL = Jet Propulsion Society |
