I found my copy in - of all places – a stationary store (right next to the rack of Harlequin Romances). Fortunately, when I gave it to a friend, there were still copies available from the first printing run, and I was able to replace it. When we hosted a series of annual indoor model airplane design contests (University of Colorado Department Aerospace Engineering Sciences vs. USAF Academy) several professors at both institutions bought copies.
I think Ron should bring out an Ultimate Edition: Leather bound, French end-papers, printed on archival vellum, and “illuminated” by hand in the style of Renaissance manuscripts.

Yes, I would be one of those. The drawings, instructions, artwork kept me interested for about 10 years before I got around to doing anything. Thank you, Ron Williams.
