New Manuals on AirCorps Library for March 18th

This week on AirCorps Library, we have a wonderful treat for C-47/DC-3 fans.

An anonymous donor has shared a C-47 Manufacturing Procedure manual covering the lower nose assembly. The 252-page book includes detailed information on all subassemblies for the lower nose as well as blueprint drawings and perspective sketches. The manual is a fascinating document full of information for this popular aircraft. Just check out the sample image below!

Wait, there's more! We also have a potpourri of new manuals covering instruments, control units, fabrication, fire extinguishers, and structural repair.

The other 33 new manuals listed below are from the Aero Trader Warbird and Restoration Collection. You can see the full list of this week's new AirCorps Library documents below.
