Hello

Do any ppruners have a copy of the operating instructions for the wonderful Sperti Astro Compass?

I have Googled for GB but have not found what I am after which are the factory supplied operating instructions.:confused: Any old e-copy or scan will do

Cheers

This site does not contain exactly what you are looking for, but it may help if you haven't seen it:

I couldn't link to the PDF manual from this page, but a bit of URL editing led me to this:

I had seen them but I am afraid they are not what I am after.

I saw both those sites and the instructions for using the compass to do a shadow or solar access survey. I was after the original Sperti operating instructions which tell you how to use it in an aircraft.

Thanks anyway.

$3 on ebay (http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZjohnbelloraQQhtZ-1) for a pdf copy - auction ends 1st December, but he seems to be a repeat seller so he should put it up again later.
