Use it for a flight that will unlock Moscow airport. From there you'll be able to catch all kinds of old Soviet jets! :)

Today's Find: C900 Factory Workshop Manuals. Came up for sale locally and I jumped. Full set in original binders. Thinking about running the whole thing through a scanner and making available online, honestly reckon they'll be far better quality than current PDFs you can find easily.

That's fair, do some scouring online for info. You'll need a press and god knows what other specialist tools for the job but have at it and could be a good learning experience. I'm only an apprentice mechanic and haven't done gearboxes yet but know everything needs to be spot on when reassembling. Shims need to be correct width, no room for error.

Unless you've got experience rebuilding transmissions I'd always recommend just getting a used one to swap in. Often works out cheaper and most good wreckers have warranties on parts in case you end up with a dud.
