NOTES: This document is a collaborative effort to locate and identify every Centuri plan that is available across the internet.
    It is exhaustive, although not complete. There are still some introduction dates which are not known, as well as
    there being some plans which no one has posted at all. We hope this document encourages everyone to look
    through their personal archives to see if they possess any of the missing plans, and if these are found, to please
    send them to Ye Olde Rocket Shoppe for immediate posting. Also, if there are discrepancies found in this list, we ask
    that you please notify us so that we can make corrections.
           
    The 1963 and 1966 Centuri catalogs are not available at this time at the Ninfinger archives. It is not known if a 1961
    catalog ever existed.
             
    *Not found in the Catalog.
     
    Red Bold Italic means no one has this version of the plan!
    Green Bold Italic means we have fin patterns or other data, but still need a plan set.
    Black Bold means this kit was announced but never produced.
             
    ??? means the date of introduction or date production ended is unknown.
