Pocket Rocket is a program written for the Palm Pilot OS.
It was originally written by Jay W. Ward in 1998. I have updated the files
and they are current as of May, 2000. I have permission from Jay to modify
the program and distribute it as Shareware / Freeware. More information is
contained in the readme file that is included with this download. The
Pocket Rocket program is a convenient way to bring a rocketry flight simulation
program with you to the launch site. It will calculate the approximate
maximum altitude of a rocket / motor combination.
