    Looking for a B-17G parts catalog on DVD

    Hello,



    I´ve found perhaps this for a very reasonable price Boeing B-17 G Aircraft Parts Catalog Manual
    As I´m going to visit N.Y.C. soon is there a chance to get it somewhere there?
    Haven´t found anything on internet yet...

    Thank you for you help!


    ...in memory of my friend Joe Owsianik, a former right waist gunner from B-17G, 42-97159 from 2ndBG 20th Sqdn, who was forced to bail out on Aug. 29th, 1944 over my country. Joe passed away on Novemer 1, 2010.

    Hi
    I have never used then before, never seen them for sale in any shops.


    I have used these guys in link below for other manuals before:-


    Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress ILLUSTRATED PARTS MANUAL on eBay.ca (item 120596345380 end time 13-Oct-10 10:48:15 EDT)

    it gives a good description of what you actually get 414 pages , 1.32 Gig, and a pre view scan.

    On the rare times I buy a manual, I personally prefer to buy of e bay as it gives better protection if something goes wrong.

    cheers

    Can luckyone explain the following -

    with your track record for bizzare and dissproven previous claims (check out luckyones other posts) what is it you hope to gain from inflamatory posts such as this ?
    Im familiar with a lot of organizations providing material like this.Ive used most of them and find the majority offer a decent service


    What does strike me the service you try to tout, has an alarmingly similar style of english writing to yours.This I can verify as Ive had actual contact with them over various orders. In fact i would be certain you are the very same person, and if not the exact person someone with an identical Englsih language style. couple that with your attempted Canvassing and its fair to say this is more than coincedence.

    Furthermore your slants on other sellers also give you away - some you cloud in a delicate way such as firstly highlighting the more expensive suppier then convinently providing your own.
    Personnaly I WOULD ALLWAYS use the ebay sellers as forum users here show the protection is better,I dont see the other sellers on here spreading nonsecence as you do, I guess they have more style.
    military-manuals,longchalk-64,ronchan_1949 ,and machone are perfectly good sellers and I can also say their decent command of english reasures me they will not play silly beggers!

    just realised ive answered my own question!

    any one else see the coincedence with these posts?

    Hi gang,

    I bought from ebay user id "longchalk-64". His stuff was garbage. Most of his stuff was ripped off from this or other websites where the info is available for free. Most were scans of a copy, thus vary dark pictures, no color, very poor quality. I actually sent them back and had to file a complaint to get a refund.

    Military-manuals is not as bad, but most of his stuff is heisted as well from other websites.

    The worst, by far is a man named Fortunato Sicuro. He lives in Richmond Hill, suburb of Toronto. He also resides in Italy. He always has 3-5 ebay ids and sells scanned manuals, aircraft videos and other aircraft related documents. He heisted stuff from everyone he could. Things listed on here have turned up on his ebay store. I bought an item from him about 7 years ago. The situation from the purchase went, well, not good. He threatened to "cut my balls off." He was kicked off ebay and opened several other accounts within the month.

    machonemanuals on ebay is the same. Nearly everything he has are heisted scans from either Peter Gill, Steve Rhode, Peter Ewbank or myself. I too once sold digital manuals on ebay, only to have them ripped off by others (pdf security is useless). I have collected for over 20 years and have @ 5000 actual manuals.

    Just some history on ebay users, past and present.

    Hi
    I have to admitt, That I personally can not see all this about 'my scans',etc.

    I find even more so strange, is about people claiming copyrights on manuals.

    If I bought an old book, then scanned it and sold the scans, I would expect to be done by the original work producer/publisher as having stolen his work.( copyright = life +50yrs of the original author )

    Most of the RAF manuals are all in the National archives in London or the RAF Museum, both of which have copyright on these items, but as I understand it allow sharing for non commercial use.

    Likewise I believe all the american manuals are in public domain.
    And luftwaffe stuff is third reich material, and as such has no copyright.

    Anyway my rant over,
    I'm back off to the important stuff of reading manuals..

    cheers
    Jerry

    While I was in USA (two weeks ago) a friend of mine ordered a B-17G parts catalog on a CD for me. I should get it in few days.
    Finaly!

    Hi Jerry,

    I too agree, the copyright thing is ridiculous. All the old manuals are in public domain; only the manuals of current aircraft in service have copyright issues.

    I think it just bugs some people (more than others) that they bought the original, scanned it, then have someone else begin reselling the manual they scanned.

    Hope the B-17G Parts is a good one Seesul.

    Have fun and back to looking over my XB-47 manual!

    Cheers!

    sir -

    i am longchalk-64 and i request you identify which ebay transaction you refer too as i make great efforts to satisfy all fellow enthiusiasts.
    I also ask what it is you hope to gain from your attacks on my name and the others you mention?
    I supply material on a optical media for various archives and i do so at extreemly low prices with genuine and sincere intent.
    I strongly object to your remarks and ask you to qualify these remarks directly to me

    i strongly object to your comments
    I find this dissapointing and I thank fellow enthusiasts or bringing my attention to this.
    If you have proof of your aqusations id like to see it.

    As ever I assure felow enthusiasts of my best attention

    sincerlly longchalk-64
