Not necessarily.... 't were all clockwork those days....
I had plans at one stage to get the unit running from standard gps nmea output, via a bit of microcontrollery, but too many other projects and lack of system info means that it’s still on the back burner.
Have all the AP reference numbers for the system, but though obsolete, it’s still 30 year rule, so no help from the usual sources.
Infuriating, what?
Civil is usually some kind of ARINC standard.
Friend of mine got several bits and pieces running (ADI, HSI, INS CDU, clock), simply by cross-referencing from the Concorde documentation, even though none of his bits and pieces were originally Concorde.
I can understand your frustration.... especially since it CAN be done given the system info.
