Technical manuals and archives - BAPA.be

Many of us are involved in aircraft restoration since more than 20 years. We are also collecting aviation documents since many years. We learned, sometime the hard way, some lessons.

In May 2014
, more than 1000 documents are scanned and indexed. The last one being a repair manual for the CF-100. Most of the aircraft used by the Belgian Air Force are documented.

Video: "Northrop P-61 Black Widow Night Fighters in Color -1945" Florennes

Received from Jean-Luc


Very rare color P-61 night fighter footage shot at the end of World War II. This is an original documentary I put together from unedited, silent archival film. See the 422nd NFS operating out of Florennes, Belgium, where you'll get an up close look at P-61 "No Nothin II." Then you'll move on to the Pacific and the island of Saipan, where you'll see legendary 548th NFS P-61 "Bat Outta Hells." One the highlights of this program is P-61 gun camera film showing a night attack with bombs, rockets and 20mm cannon Get this video and two more plus a P-61 Pilot's manual on our P-61 DVD http://bit.ly/I3d0Nc Visit our aviation DVD store at http://www.zenosflightshop.com for the World's largest selection of World War 2 & vintage jet aircraft aviation videos Use coupon code "mustang" in your shopping cart to save an extra 15% off your first order!

Book : L'aviation Légère en France 1920 – 1942

Forwarded message - From: Christian RAVEL 

Chers amis,

Les Éditions Bleu-Ciel préparent un livre sur l'aviation légère en France entre 1920 et 1942. 
J'ai eu la chance d'avoir en main de nombreuses pages, même si le livre reste à finir. C'est un travail remarquable et une source historique sans comparaison.
Ces Éditions lancent une souscription pour imprimer et diffuser cet ouvrage.
Je crois que nous devons tous y participer et diffuser l'information au maximum à tous nos contacts.
Vous trouverez ci-joint la notice et le lien pour le blog de souscription.
