If you even get an slightly outdated FM you can always contact Marion Zinn at Bell and get a quote to have the FM updated, including the latest Flight Manual Supplements. Are you looking for a A/B Flt Manual or BIII?

Thanks HBD

I already sent an email to ask how much the CD Flight Manual costs.
Do you have an idea about how much the CD FM on eBay can go for ? On the bottom it says that they will only sent to US addresses.
I never used eBay before but I badly need the CD.


DAN

They print the manuals and if you are looking for a replacement for your helicopter, they do it for free. So I wouldn’t loose too much sleep over a copied CD

I also think so.
For those that fly several types of machines its quite expensive to have an up to date collection of Manuals at those prices.
Bell is also interested that all pilots know what they are doing with their machines. It just adds to safety.

Anyway, some nosy people out here, eh ? :wacko:

First you have to open an account with ebay, it's free. Once established then send the guy and e-mail and ask if he'll ship to Canada.

The company that you are doing your ride with should have a spare that they can loan you. The last organization I worked for had additional Flt manuals, one in the aircraft and one in the CP's office.

It's not so much Bell wanting companies to ensure they have up to date manuals, that is the company responsibility to make sure all manuals are up to date, most important it is a regulatory requirement. I've never heard of Bell photocopying anything from any manuals to supply customers and I have been dealing with Bell products for some 30 years. What I would do, and only as a suggestion, is get in touch with Marion Zinn with the e-mail address provided or call Dennis Lacroix, Marketing Director, Canada at (450) 437-3400 and inquire. In addition, there is only one company that I know of that is Bell "approved" to supply CD manuals and that is at http://www.avantext.com/ (they are expensive) unless Bell have added more companies, key word is Bell approved. I have a letter from Product Support of BHT that relates to that subject. If you can ever get your hands on a Bell Pilot Transition Manual (they were provided for Bell students) that would be very good information. I had one once and loaned it out and never saw it again.

Good Luck

Manuals are about 600 us per year on cd. Any time a profesional pilot is going to stick his nose in a manual and know his product that he is going to fly I will gladly supply him with information. Even on Cd you still have to refer to the manual in the machine to get all the info you need for PPC ride it is only reference material. I keep the old cd and mark them for reference material only for students to use.

Just a correction on the Bell phone number - it's now 450-970-6500. The old one is no longer in service, or will be cut very shortly.

see what outdated info gets you?

Even phone lists aren't immune.... 😀

Good one Maggie.

Bald Eagle - I just remembered that I have a Bell 206 Pilot Ground and Flight Procedures manual (can't remember if that's the title, but it's close). It's probably 8 years old now, but I'd be happy to send it to you for reference - anyone with 'bald' in their name can't be that bad.

I will, of course, require the promise of a timely return, under the threat of posting pictures of you in unflattering circumstances on the internet. I don't have any yet, but I do have Photoshop.

Send me your contact info in a PM if you're interested.

And - finger trouble on the Bell phone number - it's 971-6500, not 970. Can't edit old posts for some reason - why is that Kyle?
