Beechcraft Model 17 Staggerwing Manuals

This week I am adding some new data to the CAP library. Several Beechcraft model 17 (Staggerwing) and Model 18 (Twin Beech) manuals and technical documents are included. Most of this data was collected by my father (John Bowden) during his extensive restoration of Beechcraft F17D s.n U261, NC297Y.CAP will gladly make copies available at a reasonable cost to assist Staggerwing restorers and owners.
