P-61 Black Widow Manuals?

[Bryster51]

Hello folks!

Searched this site for manuals on this fine bird. No joy.

Looking for Erection Maintenance, and Parts Manuals for the B model.

Thanks,

Brian.

There are the training flight manuals here: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/other-mechanical-systems-tech/b-29-p-61-flight-manuals-29422.html Unfortunately no parts manuals here though.

While I don't remember the exact production numbers, the p-61 was probably the rarest of american aircraft during the war and that makes the tech documents much harder to come by. I might be mistaken but I think they only produced a few hundred as opposed to the thousands of each of the other types. I will look tomorrow to see if I have the erection manual. Let us know if there is something more specific you need.

Many thanks to you! At least this is a good start. Thanks for the lead.
