45      The BASIC programs were given to me by the late Robert L. McCoy and 
46      posted here with his knowledge.  He worked at the US Army's Ballistics 
47      Research Lab for many years, where he wrote these programs as part 
48      of his work.  I have made some changes to these programs (with Bob's 
49      knowledge) only as necessary to fix bugs.  There are also some 
50      tabulated drag functions some of which Bob sent me and others from 
51      the Winchester text (see citation below).

78      I have a list of CD vs. Mach Number for a 9/16"

80      sphere from BRL.  Note that the mach numbers are not the same for all 
81      the tables.  The first column is the mach number, the second column 
82      is the drag coefficient.  I don't remember where I got the RA4 function.

88      A modified (modified by R. L. McCoy) version of M. A. Morris' 
89      RARDLIFT code with corrections for small arms bullets and medium caliber
90      cannon projectiles.  Provides interim estimates of lift, overturning 
91      moment and yaw drag coefficients.  Inputs are very similar to McDrag 
92      (above) but it does require the center of gravity location.

97      <BR>
98      A modified version of INTLIFT.BAS that has some bug fixes.  The 
99      original version was written to run on a Tandy1000.  There were a 
100      few problems with floating point comparisons, etc.  I believe that
101      this version fixes those bugs.
