Basic Theory of Operation - Turbo Compound Engine | (Reprint) This booklet is literally the centerpiece of our Advanced Pilot Seminars and part of the Live Course handout material. It is a remarkable little book that very clearly and concisely explains the principles behind mixture control in ALL internal combustion, spark-fired, gasoline engines. HIGHLY recommended. Originally published in 1957 as a collaborative effort between American Airlines, then operating the DC-7, and by Wright Aeronautical Division of the Curtiss-Wright company. Size is 8.5"h, 5"w, about 40 pages, in color, $25.00 including shipping within the USA. |

Prop to Pilot | (Reprint) A 1948 (rev 1958) booklet by Hamilton Standard. This small (8.5" high, 5.5" wide) book has 60 pages, all but four in color, with most of the figures drawn by hand. Excellent quality reproduction, better than the original. It explains the props on the big old radials very well in practical, real-world terms, and most of the operational principles extend to other props. It covers constant speed, feathering, unfeathering, reversing, pitch lock, synchronizing, synchrophasing, and electric de-icing. It covers those props controlled by engine oil, as well as those with integral oil control. |

The Aircraft Engine and Its Operation | A reprint of the classic engine book by Pratt & Whitney, 1955 version, reprinted in looseleaf binding. It's a beautifully done book on radial engines, loaded with color illustrations. There are 150 pages in black and white, 36 pages in color, and two fold-out pages, one color, for about 188 pages total. The actual colors are a little different from the original, and some of the color pages came out with an overall very light yellow cast, unavoidable without much higher cost. The information is exceptionally clear, and the colors work just fine to show the things the manufacturer intended. Also contains the famed Pratt & Whitney "Letters" (about 35 of them, in black and white), the P&W booklet on Torquemeters (color), Operating Curves, and two types of superchargers (color). |
