Now this is really the toughest of tough calls, IMO.....  

Given the exactness of the RAF and the BoB flight and the corners sometimes cut by Haynes, not sure what the end result would be......   :-/

Ummmmm.......

I wouldn't have thought there would be enough Spitfires left to warrent printing a manual :-/

[cem_devecioglu]

Pitty my old mate Wally ain't with us anymore, he was a spitfire mechanic during the war.
I remember one dinnertime sitting in the canteen as Wally ran me through taking the prop off one of them.
Bet he could have taught Mr Haynes a few tricks.

You forgot the essential line.....

Reassembly is the reverse of removal....

Still trying to work out how to unskin my knuckles.

[sounds2k]

the other thing of course is that they'd just list how to remove and change complete assemblies. Anything complicated like actually repairing a gearbox would be "this work is best entrusted to a specialist"

OK, so if I get the book, can someone else find the readies for the plane?

Great website Nick. Just like Autotrader for planes. I can get a plane for less than the price of a new Mondeo. Result
