Comments: This file and its RockSim 9 counterpart both employ Bruce S. "teflonrocketry1" Levison's method for simulating ring fins. RockSim 8's 3D display shows additional artifacts because the outer fin set is actually drawn from the ST-7 body tube. My RockSim 9 version eliminates these artifacts, thanks to its much-needed "pod" feature. The fin patterns print out as intended.
