Post by: Jeffry Fontaine on April 28, 2018, 12:02:55 PM

Avialogs Aviation Library (http://www.avialogs.com/) is a canadian aviation organisation dedicated to preserve our aeronautic heritage and to build an online aviation library. You will find on this site technical documents, newspapers, books related to the various fields of the air.

Loads of technical documents for many of your favourite aircraft subjects.  Listings are easy to sort though to find what you are looking for. 


Good luck and good hunting! :)

Thanks, Jerry. There's some good stuff there but there's also some large gaps, too. No Bristol piston engines at all! None of the WW2 Canadian-built aircraft either.

Thanks for the link Jeffry. I was surprised to find a brochure in there for the unbuilt Canadair CL-204. Good stuff!

Well, there is one, the Noorduyn Norseman in its USAAF C-64A form  ;)  Still, it'd be nice to see some of the Fleet trainers, older Canadian Vickers flying boats etc.

I’m sure they’d happily include any manuals, etc., on those subjects that you care
to gift to them.
