Looking to purchase these two AP’s…
Tried the RAF Museum but they don’t have them…
Anyone know where I could get either photocopies or a scanned copy… 😉
AP.1538 Vol. I Airscrews.
AP. 1464B Vol. I Exactor Controls, Graviner fire-extinguisher system & tyre removals.

Specifically Stu’s request will be for whichever AP1538 subset covered DH bracket-type controllable-pitch propellers as per Whirlwind. Time frame should be straightforward at late thirties to early forties.

You need to be more detailed in your request. AP1538 has been issued over many years and covers many different types of propellers and was subject to rolling amendments. AP1538 in 1970 was totally different to the issue in the 1940’s. It was also issued in sub sets, AP1538E issued in 1944 covered Dowty propellers.
Your request for the 1464B is by equipment description easier to deal with as you mention Exactor controls which puts it in a time bracket.
