CRP 5 Instruction booklet ?

As the title says,

Does anyone have an instuction booklet/manual for a CRP 5 whizz wheel ? Maybe you've finished your exams and don't need it anymore, or it's another booklet floating round your nav bag making it ever heavier?
I managed to get hold of the wheel but sans instructions.
Happy to pay a reasonable fee or charitable contribution
If you can help please PM.

Thanks
Chris

The booklet is useless, get yourself one of these:

The Navigational Computer CD ROM

updated new edition

Oxford CD-ROM Navigation Flight Computer (New) - Detailed item view - Pilot Shop, Leading Pilot Supplies, Pilot Gear, Avionics, Aircraft Supplies

When i was doing my exams i was dreading the use of the crp-5 but after using the oxford software for about a week i became a crp-5 grand master.

Thanks Blue,

Certainly looks easier, have emailed to ask if it works on a MAC

Though the booklet is handy to keep with it for quick reference, so still interested if anyone has one.

Many thanks
Chris

Contact Pooleys direct
I'm sure they will send you one

I have quite a few spare in Luton but am in Gatwick until the end of the week

If you don't get one by the weekend email us but I'm sure Pooleys will sort you out first

none of the OAA software works on a Mac. it should be in their FAQ. I think some people have succeded with using parallel but havent had that confirmed.

You're right 'mech, the disc won't work on a Macbook. However 'Pooleys' have kindly agreed to mail me a manual, (thanks for the offer and suggestion CATS)

Appreciate all the replies.


Cheers
Chris
