I'm looking for a few tech orders for the B-17.
Does anyone know of a place online, or someone
who has access to some?

In particular, I'm looking for T.O. 03-01-05

Bill, What is the description of the T.O?

Has something to do with the bombay door motor and the Landing gear retraction motor.

One has a 28:1 reduction, and the other a 40:1 ratio. Or so I've heard.
I do not know what issue the T.O. addresses, though.

I know that the motors were the same, its just the ratio gear that changed,
The 2 main landing gear motors were the same, but the flap motor, bombay door motor and the tail wheel motor were set with different ratio's, I will check with the Sally B lot as I know they have some T.O on this.
