looking for "Engineering Application Programs for the HP-28S" - dalupus - 06-17-2016 12:30 PM
The other day I ran across a masters thesis someone had written on how to use the 28S as an Aeronautical engineer: "AN AERONAUTICAL ENGINEERING USER'S MANUAL TO THE HP-28S HANDHELD CALCULATOR".
http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a236618.pdf
In the thesis and in the references he lists a book:
IEEE Student Branch, Engineering Application Programs for the HP-28S, pp.27,31, US Naval Postgraduate School, 1989.
I have not had any luck locating this book. Any chance anyone knows where else I might be able to look?
Also should we add the thesis to the master list of docs on this website and the flash drive?

Drop a mail to this Naval School or the author of the thesis. I hope he is in good health despite of https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/local/1995/03/12/shooters-rage-took-navy-colleagues-by-surprise/d7e21874-7b2a-4d5e-a15c-5db08a65dd16/

I would search the EDUCALC resources as this is the most probable source:
HP-28s Engineering Applications
Robert Boyd
Educalc Pubns (June 1989)
ISBN-10-9992233583
ISBN-13-978-9992233580
BEST!

Thanks.
Unfortunately I can't seem to find that book either (other than confirmation that it existed)
