I think that George Gassaway has footage of Jim Hartman's PMC crash, in one of his prang films.

If they aren't already there, they should be posted to YouTube.com and/or Rumble.com (if they--and Bill's--are beyond Statutes of Limitations...).

I got this model on ebay. Decent price, good detail (static model). Just under 14" tall.

Thank you for posting the Nuri model photograph! Is it a plastic kit made by Finescale Models? (They made a 1/144 scale KSLV kit: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthope...icle-1831394489 [South Korea's first satellite launch vehicle; it used a single, modified, Russian Angara-type booster core module, topped by a Korean-made solid propellant second stage with a movable nozzle and guidance system, rather like the USAF's Thor-Burner II and Thor-Burner IIA satellite launch vehicles].)

No, this is a pre-made display model. I think these are actually sold at KARI (Korea Aerospace Research Institute). I had to get a set which included the TLV (Test Launch Vehicle - a suborbital rocket that tested the Nuri first-stage engines).

I do have the Finescale kit. Super-nice model. I hope they eventually model the Nuri as well.

Ah--thank you for letting me know. It sounds like the pre-made ESA Vega model that Tim Dodd (the "Everyday Astronaut") has in his studio. I hope Finescale will re-issue the KSLV-1 and offer a TLV and Nuri kit, maybe in the same scale.

The last two pictures (of the kit decal sheet, and of the parts on plastic "trees") are of the KSLV-1 (also called Naro-1, after the launch site: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naro-1 ) model kit, which I have; its nose cone is a single-angle cone with a slightly radiused tip, while the Nuri has a biconical nose. I would gladly get one or more Nuri kits if Finescale Models made one, though. Also:

The Naro-1, three examples of which were flown (the third succeeded), used a slightly modified Russian Angara common booster core, topped by a South Korean-developed solid propellant second stage with a movable nozzle. Conceptually, the Naro-1 was rather similar to the Thor-Burner II, which used a large kerolox-burning first stage (a surplus Thor IRBM) topped by a Surveyor lunar lander solid propellant retro-motor, which served as its second stage (it used thrusters for steering during its burn). As well:

There was an earlier design for the Naro-1 (which looked like a miniature Titan IIIC), using all South Korean-made hardware, that KARI (their space agency) abandoned in favor of of the partly Russian Naro-1 (see: http://www.astronautix.com/n/naro-1.html ) that ultimately flew.
