Both of these are available for download from myboeingfleet.com. Alternatively, remind me in a couple of weeks when i'm back in the desert, i believe that we have spare copies available.

DustRat,
When you get the Bowyang book from Mutt (about 3 inches thick) ... be prepared to dig out your old uni level pure maths text books as well ....

Another very useful book, to read in association with the Boeing manual, is
Aircraft Performance
Mair and Birdsall
Cambridge Aerospace Series 5
ISBN 0 521 36264 4
ISBN 0 521 56836 6
Not for the mathematically illiterate but nonetheless reasonably readable.

i highly recommend the "aircraft performance requirements manual" by r.v.davies. you will require uk cap385 along with it since it is extensively used in conjunction with the text. (already mentioned by 80/20)
specific boeing type related perf manuals are also great - from the 747-200/300 era and probably other types of similar vintage.
if you combine the above three it's a pretty unbeatable combination.
be prepared though for a fair amount of mental gymnastics till you start getting the flow, unless you have the benefit of some "chalk and talk" in a classroom. do not worry if you find the text 'dry', you will be atleast the second person to find it so.
