Feb 14, 2013 #1 R RRMerlinxx Airman 13 0 Feb 14, 2013 Hi, I wonder if anyone can help. I am a volunteer at an Aircraft Museum in the south of the UK and we will soon be restoring an RR Merlin XX and hopefully get it running. Dose anyone know where or if they have some maintenance/overhaul manuals for the engine? Thanks Aaron

You can find Packard Merlins here, I know those were not exact copies of RR models, but still: Merlin Maybe the best place worth talking would be the RR Heritage Trust?
