Evaluations are presented of the flyby performance for all low-launch-energy near-earth asteroid missions for launch opportunities extending from 1995 through 2006, and determinations are made as to the suitability of these asteroids as targets for flyby missions. The performance data are presented in a series of tables. This information can be used to select the most interesting examples of near-earth asteroid flyby missions for a more detailed examination which can include a launch period analysis and determination of spacecraft, earth, and target geometry during the mission.
