New Manuals on AirCorps Library for May 13th

This week, we are dropping 40 new manuals covering magnetos, photography equipment, and tachometers.

Most of the magneto manuals cover Bendix-Scintilla components, but T.O. No. 03-5DA-4 includes multiple manufacturers.

Our new tachometer manuals cover a wider range of manufacturers, including Eclipse-Pioneer, General Electric, Kollsman and others.

Lastly, the 10 photo equipment manuals include several manufacturers new to AirCorps Library - Watts Manufacturing and Advertising Displays. Photo equipment may not be the most critical component of warbird restoration, but with film photography making a comeback they are some of the more interesting manuals uploaded this week. You can find links to all the new manuals below!

Don't hesitate to contact us if you need assistance

Several weeks ago, we received a call from a customer searching for a manual for a propeller governor test stand.

We were able to identify the T.O. number for the document the subscriber needed, but we didn’t have a digital or a physical copy. About a week later, as we were scanning a box of donated manuals that just arrived at the office, there was T.O. 33D2-11-3-11 staring right at us. We were able to upload the manual, and a supplement to that manual, and let the customer know by the end of the day.

This doesn’t always happen, but it's pretty nice when it does. It's also a good reminder that if you can’t locate a manual or a drawing on AirCorps Library, shoot us a call or an email.

If we don’t have it, we will try to find it, and if we can’t locate it, we will keep an eye out until it comes across our scanner. Details on how to contact us can be found on AirCorps Library.

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.
