Archives

Over the years we have amassed a vast and unique collection of vintage books, periodicals and official publications. Our archives include a large number of Ministry of Defence Air Publications and technical manuals (from 1913 onwards) and German publications, along with manuals for all manner of vintage military aircraft including those produced by: De Havilland, Rolls Royce, Supermarine, Hawker, Messerschmitt and Junkers.

We are pleased to offer a scanning service for our collection, providing members with high quality OCR (where available) PDFs. Whilst the majority of our library is now out of copyright, we charge a nominal fee per book to cover the time and expense involved in the digitisation process, along with a small annual subscription cost to access the service and request scans.

Please note: the process of adding our library items to the website is on-going and at present, we have listed only a fraction of our collection. Therefore, we urge members to contact us with any requests for manuals/parts lists/documents not listed – as it is highly likely we can help.
