Our Archive.org Holdings: Aircraft Bulletins

Similar to the employee newspapers, our digitized holdings on Archive.org include bulletins that focus on the aircraft that these companies built. These documents have a specific audience: the pilots and crew that flew and maintained the aircraft they built. 

"Plane Talk" was a publication by Convair that focused on specific aircraft they built, such as the B-24 and the PBY.

Films were also produced to help the crew fly and maintain Convair aircraft. 

The Field Service Bulletins gave updates and maintenance instructions to users of Consolidated aircraft. 

Later, the "Convair Traveller" was published that focused on its passengers aircraft, like the 340 series and the 880.
