AP4343 Historic Aviation Electrical Manuals Collection

This collection consists of sixteen volumes from the AP4343 Air Publication electrical series, together with catalogs and data sheets from the  Rotax aircraft electrical equipment manufacturer. The material includes theory of operation, service and repair information and data sheets for a wide variety of RAF and civil aircraft electrical equipment, covering the period from the early 1950's to the late 1960's. Many of the manuals are illustrated with exploded line drawings of the mechanisms and include test schedules, installation info and electrical schematics, where relevant.

The Rotax information was sourced from the approx A5 sized ring binder catalogs from the mid 1960's and includes data sheets for motors, dc generators, alternators, inverters, regulators, combustion and air starters, lighting, actuators and more. Scanned at between 300 and 400dpi and saved to archive quality cdrom. Over 550 Mb on disc.


Hopefully a usefull collection for anyone interested in historic aviation, for learning how the systems worked, for restoration or for maintenance.


Thanks for looking and good luck with the bidding?
