New Manuals on AirCorps Library for April 1st
We skipped the funny business on April Fools Day and opted instead for a seriously awesome new batch of warbird engine and component manuals.
This week we have a total of nine new manuals covering Pratt & Whitney and Continental Motors engines and 24 new documents to the the Starters and Motors & Brakes units.
The Pratt & Whitney manuals include details on ignition components for the R-4360 and details for ignition and carburetor components for the R-2800. Our new Continental Motors manuals cover service, overhaul, and parts for the O-470 engine.
Our new starter and electric motor documents cover components from Bendix, Lamb, General Electric, Lear Siegler and more.
April 1st also marks the end of the first quarter of 2026. If you have missed any of the 500 documents we have uploaded so far this year check out our previous blog posts.
And remember - you can get exclusive historic warbird manuals delivered straight to your email inbox each week. Sign up now for the AirCorps Library weekly newsletter by clicking this link.
