I have the whole manual :D

Follow the "Pilots Notes" link on my webpage below Loads of other AH planes as well all in pdf format (Spit, Lanc, Typhoon, Hurricane Mosquito etc) Most are a few mb each so give em time to load.

Haven't had chance to verify al the links so if any don't work just let me know & I'll fix em. :)

Yup, got it also.


In fact the number of times I've posted the address of the firm that re-prints the manuals on this BBS for Pyro is.....um......bout 3.

If I do ever make it to a con I'm gonna wave the manual under his nose until he agrees to put a DT on the seafire.

Where do you guys get your hands on these manuals?
are they floating around on the 'net? or would I have to order them from somewhere?  I'd like to get my hands on a F6F or P51 manual. :D

Nah, there's a company in Manchester, GB, that reprints the manuals.  They only cover aircraft flown in RAF service so you may have a hard time finding a manual for the F6F, I think it only flew in Fleet Air Arm service.

Soon as I get home I'll post the address / fax number for ya........unless anyone else has a manual to hand, the address is on the back cover.

from observation of Spit Vs in the MA I would imagine the manual is pretty short:

1> attempt to commit seppuku by yanking stick as hard back into your belly as possiible

2> spray and pray

3> don't worry about the .303 browninig unless you want to tickle people
