Great source for aircraft info

Hey!

I just stumbled across a great site!!

http://www.aircraft-manuals.com/

They seem to have darn near every aircraft in existance technical manuals! I just ordered the Dehavilland DHC-6 Twin Otter Illustrated Parts manual (great for making those detailed parts) for $9.85, the Fairey Firefly Pilots notes manual ($9.85) and the Bristol Centaurus engine maintenance manual ($14.85). all are on DVD.

I'll let you know how they are when they arrive!

On hold Jim. In the process of packing, we're moving to newer (and hopefully) nicer digs.

Hopefully I'll be back at it in a few months.

Re: Great source for aircraft info

Opppps that did not work.
Tried to save a sample to word , but it will not upload.
The CD has 378 pages of information taken from a original manual and some stuff is modified to the builder at the time. The airplane that the owner had purchased was N6652, and it had served with varios RAF training squadrons.
If someone is looking for details, this is it. Sorry for not beeing able to post a sample here, but if anyone is interested, e-mail me, and I will send it that way.
Cato.
