 A must have reference guide for all mechanics. Feb 23, 2007
By C. Scalfani
"Mr. Theory"
This is an EXCELLENT reference guide on how to do all sorts of quality maintenance practices. Yes it pertains to aircraft, but these sound practices apply to anything worth maintainig. There is a proper way to do things and this is the guide that shows you.
This book is spiral bound which is real convenient since it lies flat so you can have the book open and work at the same time. All maintenance books should consider this type of binding.
It lost one star based on print quality (the font could have been darker) but most would have no complaint in this area.

Great Reference For Mechanics, Pilots and Racers Aug 18, 2009
By Steve Dietrich
The publisher, ASA does a consistently great job with their materials.
Although the handbook is targeted to the needs of the aviation mechanic (A&P), it offers a wealth of information for pilots interested in the maintenance of their aircraft.
The topics covered include basic metallurgy, taxi signals, identification of nuts and bolts plus fittings, use of various tools,corrosion identification and management, batteries from theory to maintenance. Many helpful tables such as the battery voltage vs % charged.
The organization is excellent. The book is pocket book size but spiral bound which allows it to lay flat. Paper is heavy quality stock and easy to read.
For the pilot there are pages of illustrations to help identify parts which greatly facilitates conversations with shops.
Lots of tables including trig functions, resistor identification, drill sizes, aluminum alloys etc.
For the racer many of the practices regarding hardware, plumbing and electrical systems are very similar.

 Good Resource for Aerospace Aug 23, 2010
By Bryan S. Wood
"Epistemologist"
It was suggested by our ODA administrator to get these books for the Unit Members. They have come in very handy right off the bat. Helping us get a feel for some things that might have been a little fuzzy on parts we supply to customers. Nice spiral bound edition sits flat on the desk, and makes it easy to read and compare.

LIVE AND LEARN Sep 23, 2011
By victor valli
ONE OF THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE AND DETAILED HANDBOOKS EVER. IF YOU NEED MORE INFO THAN THIS I WOULD SUGGEST THE ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITTANICA. OR GOOGLE.
NOW IF YOU COULD TELL ME WHERE MY " ADF GUIDEBOOK" IS I WOULD APPRECIATE IT. IT WAS PURCHASED THE SAME DAY AS THE ABOVE.
