I think you'll like these MiTasol There is also a handy index at the end. I'll split and post the other two volumes later today

A couple of examples, with serial number and BuNos highlighted to show which aircraft the mods started on

Thanks

That is the sort of info that is getting rarer to find by the day.

I think Geoffrey Sinclair will also like it

Agreed it is a nice find. Not quite sure what is going on with the copying.

Starting at part 1 of the PDF it is missing numbers 4, 13, 15 and 16. Then on PDF part 2 page 92 it starts again with number 1, which means number 4 starts on PDF part 3 page 2, number 13 on page 86 etc. All up it means the 4 PDF are a complete set of volume 1, but not quite 2 sets.

These are fantastic . Any chance you could post the B-17 ones fubar? I'd be interested to see how the Boeing ones differ from Consolidated. They must've had a large office of drawing staff to produce tech training and info backup like this. Speaking as a Brit, the illustrative style is very attractive, compared to the UK manuals, which tended to be more spartan and based on derivations of line drawings. The Field Service Bulletins also underline, for me, the scale of the arsenal of democracy. Superb
