Still looking for more PDF copies of Flight manuals and other tech manuals for the library. If you have one and want to contribute it let me know.

http://library.warbirdinformationexchange.org/

The shelves are pretty bare at the moment :cry:

Scott, I have an O-2A/B Flight manual in .pdf, its about 7 MB size. Its revision date is January 1979. Is that too large to send you?

I've got all kinds of paper manuals here, Scott. But don't have anything electronic. Would the paper ones be of any use to you at all?

Scott,

I think I still have my father's Tech books pertaining to the Convair Prop-Liners (CV-340/440/580) when I finally get into a new home (I'm still living out of boxes from my move from Mn to Ct) is this something that you are looking for since the USAF used the Convair's as training aircraft. They are all in paper book form, but I was curious...

Let me know your thoughts,

Paul

You can try and send it to the e-mail button below (angelslave at gmail.com) If that doesn't work we can set something up via FTP if you know what that is.

Sure, I'd have to borrow them to get them scanned in but if your willing to send them then I can use them.

Pick one (or more :wink: ) out and I'll see about getting permission to let you borrow them for scanning.
