I noticed that there isn't a manual for the DC 7. I realize the amount of work that has to be put into getting one of these to us. Is there any prospect of getting one in the future?

You could always buy one if you wanted to spend the money. It's pretty expensive though. http://www.esscoaircraft.com/product_p/8368.htm

Bill, I will not say there will never be one, but it is unlikely. What we might end up doing (and this has not even been discussed further than this thread, so don't expect it tomorrow) but we might encorporate DC-6/7 info into our DC-4 manual because that is the primary aircraft. You are right, writing one of these manuals, generally takes a few monthes and that is when things are really clicking well. I will let you know what we decide if anything. CHEERS
