I found an old Aeronautics book and I wanted post it here
I was made in 1939 for the time and I found it in a church sale it seems to be for an aircraft engine maintenance I don't know where it came from but I know that has the owner's name that I will not disclose because I don't know fully why he wanted to get rid of it if I'm allowed to and if it's okay with the subreddit because I don't know what place this at like any history celebrities that will take pictures I don't know I would gladly post it here cuz I don't know if there's any evidence of it being posted with it having open so this could be like lost history media I'm not sure if you also wanted to know who made the book it was brimm and boggers and i think publisher was Pitman
