Martin 202/404 Manuals

Wed Mar 27, 2013 6:46 pm

Looking for a set of manuals for the 202 or 404. Just a basic erection manual would be perfect, not sure how they title civilian manuals. Digital or a copy is fine. Lon or donation would be awesome :)

Doubt you'll find one digital since when the last Martins were retired, computers were still the size of a garden shed.

Have you tried Mark Thompson, out of Adelante, Ca? He had everything I needed for the Harpoon.

Email the curator at the Tulsa Air and Space Museum, kjones at tulsamuseum dot org
They have a collection of old manuals from Spartan School of Aeronautics that might be helpful. I believe that the Airline museum in Kansas City has a Martin, and might have the manuals there.

Our museum might have a set of 4-0-4 manuals. I know we have a ton of manuals from members who worked at the local airlines like Mohawk or allegheny who both operated the 4-0-4 and 2-0-2 respectively.

I haven't looked through them since last summer, so I can't say for sure but I will try to check tomorrow or Saturday when I'm there next.

Actually, most old aircraft have had their manuals digitalized so people can get them due to the lack of originals.

There are other sites as well.

I had a look today through all of our manuals and unfortunately, I didn't see a 202/404 manual though I swore I have before.

Thank you for checking. seems the 202 manuals were way different than the 404 and I need the 202's.
