Looking For The Person Selling POH CD's

[NW_Pilot]

A Long time ago there was a Person selling CD's/DVD's with Copies of POH's
from almost all General Aviation Aircraft Singles and Twins. Dose anyone
know where this guy went? Been searching usenet archives with no luck in
contacting the person!

Thanks In Advance

Nope not essco, The person I guess was scanning POH/PIM's and making PDF
files out of them and selling them on CD/DVD

I have some that I found on some MFG's websites like maule and socata and I
would like to have some reading material on other makes and models of
aircraft. I also buy as many diffrent POH/PIM's as I can find on ebay it
really helps in the ferry business.

Outside of eBay, there are several sources for
quality flight manuals online. Here are two:

www.esscoaircraft.com

Paper manuals - quick shipping - good service.

www.techmanualdepot.com

E-manuals and CBT software - good prices

Happy Flight Simming !

They also have manuals on CD, I've bought the service and parts manuals
for my Skylane from them that way. The scans are of good quality, very
readable.

There's this one which has service and parts manuals for cherokees. Not
sure if he's got others:

Ahhh... except for old airplanes the POH is aircraft serial number
specific. These would make a good reference, but I doubt they'd be
considered legal documents to serve the point of carrying the poh in
the airplane..

No, but they're good to have at home as reference if you're a renter and
going to check out in a new type of plane. I just ordered a 1973 Cessna
182 POH from them because the local FBO has a 1973 and I plan to check out
in it.

Sheesh, no need to yell. I was just stating that I was able to get P&S
manuals from this guy, and that he MIGHT have other manuals. I think I
did see either a POH or an AFM on his site.

Reference Is all I am wanting them for! My POH collection from buying on
ebay is rather bulky and I dont have much storage space to keep all them I
would rather have them in computer format.

I can second these guys.

I picked up a a "not legal for flight" home reference copy of my POH,
and I'm very satisfied.

I've used them a number of times, and they seem to work okay. It is
very much a "what we've got, take it or leave it." A couple of orders
resulted in copies with substantial unreadable sections. They happily
replaced them - with more unreadable copies. It was clear that the
originals were defective, which I understand, but it was also clear
that they weren't even bothering to look at the original or the copies
- just pull one off the shelf and send it out.

There is an "Avantext" (or some similar name) that has higher quality -
at a higher price.

Perhaps you should be looking for a scanner. I have a light flatbed scanner
that connects via USB and does not require a power brick. You could use
such a scanner to scan all the POH and other materials to which you have
access to your laptop. You can edit this material and burn it to a CD for
your own use and perhaps for sale. Use CAUTION regarding the sale of
copyrighted material.

Happy landings,

[NW_Pilot]

No, don't have the time to do that!
