What Pacer references do you recommend???

[JoeB]

I recently joined the SWPC to get the 'Plans CDs' that everyone talks about (I think the cds are 'Blueprints & Drawings CDs, I & II' ?)
After a few minutes on Univair's website, I see that they have all kinds of publications available, fuselage drawings, wing drawings, PA20 owners manual, etc, etc, etc...

What do you all have for reference materials and do you have a recommendation to a Short Wing Newbie?

Thanks,
Joe

I use all of the above. Getting parts, I use Univair's books...The CD's help when I do modification work.

I use both the main drawing CD and the Vagabond drawing CD. The Piper Service Memo, Instructions and Bulletins book from Univair is also handy along with the parts manual. The Owners Handbook has some good information as well. I have started my own book based on the parts manual with notes and drawing inserted in the appropriate sections so I spend less time looking for things.

Good, I've added your soon to be published book to my wish list! When is it coming out??? ;)

[Steve Pierce]

I'll have to start scanning and put it online.

How do you purchase the drawings cd's?

[Curly]

CD's are available from the Short Wing Piper Club - http://www.shortwing.org/catalog/swpc-cd-collection

Best money you will ever spend and essential if you are restoring.

Is there an Aircraft Maintenance Manual out there someplace for sale for a Colt PA22-108.
Thanks

Bill, I added your thread to another with some good resources. The SWPC Drawing CDs, and the parts manual and owners handbook from Univair are your best written documents, in addition to this website of course. ;)
