If you need to check the widget, or undertake a full maintenance on a USA-built aircraft, but you've lost the manual, don't worry. Newport Aeronautical Sales has developed an Internet site which enables surfers to locate manuals.

The company, based in Newport Beach, California, has a library of more than 80,000 manuals and more than 3 million engineering drawings relating most American-built commercial and military aircraft from the 1940s onwards. The site can be found at www.newportaero.com
