I am looking for an old, out of print, superseded twice, Army TB (Technical Bulletin). As I get closer to painting all the placards and marking on Barfly, I realize that I need an accurate reference to work from. Although I know she is not an actual L19, I want my rendition to be as accurate as possible.

I need a copy of TB 746-93-2, Painting and Marking of Army Aircraft. I have a digital copy of the latest addition (TM55-1500-345-23) but I really need the 12 January 1971 version. The L19 was removed from the copy I have.

If anybody has a copy, or even a lead on where I may find one, I would to hear about it!

Here is what the cover of the manual should look like except it should say 12 January 1971 on the bottom.

I wonder if the Commemorative Air Force would have a copy in their library. Perhaps they can make a copy of the relevant pages for a small donation.

It looks like the SFO Aviation Museum has a copy from 1971 in their collection:

They don't lend stuff out, but perhaps they could photocopy the pages you need. You may want call them and see if they could do that for you:

Couple of places I found. Or thought of anyway.

US Army Aviation Museum [armyaviationmuseum.org]

International Bird Dog Association [ibdaweb.com]

Thank you for the leads guys! I guess my Google skills are a little lacking. LOL

I purchased the 4 Birddog Technical Drawings from the International Birddog Association. They were informative but lacking the fine details that I am looking for. I sent the IBDA an email inquiring about the manual/information that I seek. Hopefully since I have already made a purchase, they will be helpful.....

Keep the photos coming on that project. Great idea.

Do you still need a copy of this manual? I work for the DEPT OF THE ARMY, Fixed Wing Program Office, and I maybe able to get it for you!

Yes I do please!!

Sorry, no luck.
