Description

Official bracket-bound Rocketdyne copy of the engine acceptance report for F-1 Rocket Engine Serial No. F-0697, 9 x 11.25, dated September 11, 1969. Engine No. F-6097 was the next-to-last F-1 that was delivered to NASA and originally slated for one of the later, canceled Apollo missions. A report like this accompanied each of the F-1 (and J-2) engines that were delivered to NASA at MFSC. There the engines were accepted and assembled onto Stages for the Saturn V launch vehicles and they underwent further testing. The report contains the engine's 'Hot-Fire' data from Rocketdyne calibration, qualification, and testing. Bound into a paper Rockwell International binder. In fine condition. The consignor notes that the engineer who had this report was one of a team at MSFC who took the provided data and ran 'data-reductions' to verify that certain acceptance test criteria had actually been tested properly and were met.
