CAUTION – A number of aviation owners / operators / type club sites are reporting a huge influx of scam attempts. Most seem to be from an organized group that has targeted aircraft owners. Most scams are starting with responses to people looking for specific aircraft parts or avionics. Many of the scams seem to feature responses that have poor grammar, sentence structure, etc. It’s clear that English is not the respondent’s first language. So, BEWARE! And be cautious if offered items from an unknown, unverifiable source. If you’re at all uncomfortable with an unknown seller, ask for references.

WAANTED: TECH MANUALS FOR LA-140 CAMERA POD
HELP FINDING PUBLICATIONS. Hello fellow Bird-doggers. Trying to find any or all of the following tech manuals. I've spent a couple of months working my way thru the Army system and discovered that the Army apparently destroyed them when they moved their records from Monmoth, NJ, to Redstone Arsenal, NJ. I've also struck out with a couple of civilian companies that offer such pubs. Currently trying with the Pentagon Library and the Library of Congress but I'm not hopeful. So, hoping someone out there might have the key to finding them. Thanks In advance for any help! The pubs: TM 11-6760-207-10 “Operator’s Manual: Mount, aircraft camera LA-140A (24x microfiche) (repreinted w/basic incl C3-4)” TM 11-6760-207-20 “Organizational Maintenance Manual for mount, aircraft camera, LA-140A (24 microfiche)” TM 11-6760-207-20P “ORGANIZATIONAL MAINTENANCE REPAIR PARTS AND SPECIAL TOOLS LISTS FOR MOUNT, AIRCRAFT CAMERA, LA-140A (24X MICROFICHE)” TM 11-6760-207-35 “FIELD AND DEPOT MAINTENANCE MANUAL: MOUNT,
