Abstract
In this paper, we obtain explicit parameter equations of spacelike
rectifying curves in $E^3_1$ whose projection onto spacelike,
timelike and lightlike plane of $E^3_1$ is a normal curve. We also
obtain explicit parameter equations of spacelike normal curves in
$E^3_1$ whose projection onto lightlike plane of $E^3_1$, with
respect to a chosen screen distribution, is a rectifying W-curve.
