If and when I reunite the parts and pieces I'll scan them and put them in the plans section. Might feel the need to build them. It's probably time.
Ken Johnson of Aardvark Rockets had some really nice kits.
Is this picture that I attached the Aardvark SkyWriter you have?

I couldn’t find any info on a SkyWriter other than the rocket at this Wayback Machine link to when this SkyWriter kit was still in BETA testing and I wasn’t familiar with it. If this is the same rocket that you have that is one very cool OOP find.

I bought a bunch of stuff from Ken Herrick with Al’s Hobby Shop back in the day and he handled a good selection of Aardvark kits. I had two of the mid powered 2.6” dia. Black Brant kits and a ton of their RockSim files that I had downloaded unfortunately on a hard drive that died.
