Default I'm impressed!

Wow, that was quick. I ordered this book last Sunday (Australian time), received an email to say it had shipped at 4am Tuesday morning, arrives at my front door 0930 Wednesday morning. Turns out that because the books are printed when you order, it gets printed in Australia and shipped locally - no long wait for things to come from the US. You're a legend Marc - many thanks.

Default Arrived today

I received my copy of the Aircraft Wiring Guide today. My overall impression is that this is a great buy. I don't keep too may hard copies of anything anymore since we are in the electronic age but I have to say that this gem is a keeper.
Thanks Marc

I'm very interested but would prefer just an electronic version. A paper one (at least, one in my possession) is too likely to get damaged/crinkled/dirty/lost/torn, and my annotations are half-likely to be illegible if not typed. There's a reason I jumped on getting the pdf plans as soon as they were offered...

Received mine a couple days ago - a super quick read. Fair warning - and taking nothing away from the book - it is a super basic primer, which exactly what I need. If you have any experience with this, it is probably a bit thin.

Marc if you go with an electronic version, will you be sure to start a new thread with the announcement?

Default New Book

Yea! I'm all excited opening the box. My new Aircraft Wiring Guide arrived. So I open the beautiful cover and the insides are bound upside down and backwards. I have to read it from back to front.
Sent Lulu an issue report.

Larry, Let me know if they handle it for you. If not, I'd be glad to follow up too. Marc

Default Wiring Book

Thanks for writing this. Just ordered one. Structure is done, wiring is starting. Physical routing is my current wonderment. Where should the wires run?
