September 25, 2024

I thought I could do some basic work on my 1946 Champ with the reprint manual and CAM-18, since they were contemporary to the planes manufacture. My A&P insisted I need this. Boy was he right! I have already found two areas that had been changed/updated in the past 70 years. Plus so much quick-reference material.
