Drawing for the PT 19 - 26
Posted: Sun May 07, 2006 3:09 pm
'Fellow members,
I have had two roles of 35 MM film scanned and put on a data DVD. There are
over 1500 images that include drawings of parts for the PT series aircraft.
I have not completely reviewed the entire set of drawings but have looked
and renamed 500 or so. The files that were renamed were listed under a system
that gave no clue as to what was on that image. The other drawings are named
with the part number.
In many cases there are two drawings, or sometimes more, for a part number.
One is a record of changes and is of little use but the others are drawings
of individual parts.
When I had the scanning done I was buying an unknown product. I now know
that a good share of the drawings are very clear and can be printed, made super
sized on a computer and will be of some help to people needing information
on parts. There are some assembly drawings that might be helpful.
The current format is a data DVD. As I understand the process you would
need a DVD player on your computer to view the parts. They can be transferred
to a CD format with jpeg images but this will require three or more disks.
I have found several images that have helped in my restoration project. If
anyone would be interested in having this information I would be happy to copy
the disk. Of course, I would want to recover some of my purchase price.
This information would be a good addition to the Fairchild Club PT CD disk.
Price ??? It would depend on how much interest there is in having this
information.
My email is _Pilot4906@aol.com_ (mailto:Pilot4906@aol.com) if anyone is
interested.
