Zach,
Interesting that you used SpaceX's failed landing clips. This is exactly what we (likely the entire amateur satellite community) are hoping to learn, what caused each of the failures. Sure, SpaceX didn't share HOW they learned what the failures were, but then they are a for-profit company with competitors. Who are AMSAT's competitors? If AMSAT is truly promoting space education (as eluded to in the mission and vision statements), why aren't these documents public? How can we help others (or ourselves) launch successful satellites if we keep all of our procedures secret?
And yes, I AM thinking about volunteering, but I have no clue if my skills are of value. So I'm hoping to see the extent of the engineering documentation in hopes of learning if I can add anything.
