For those that are interested, i've created some black-and-white copies of the new BMS manuals on lulu.com. There are two volumes:

Volume 1, which includes:
- User's Manual (200 pages)
- Technical Manual (260 pages)
- Comms & Navigation Manual (146 pages - no charts)

Volume 2, which includes:
- Dash 1 (234 pages)
- Dash 34 (270 pages)
- Training Manual (202 pages)

I wouldn't normally post this before seeing a print copy for myself (you never know if there will be issues associated with final trimming that could pork the tabs i added to each page), but there is a promotion at lulu.com that expires today at midnight for 10% off (use LULU10... it's case sensitive). So, BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK. It's only 10% off, so i recommend waiting to see how mine turn out (should receive them next week).

These costs are 100% associated with printing and shipping from lulu.com, i don't make a penny on any of these books.

Feel free to share the links directly with others (preferred to link to this topic on the site) but please don't post them directly on the BMS website. While Red Dog doesn't have any issues with people printing their own sets, it's obvious that he'd prefer everyone have the books in the format he envisioned, which is completely understandable.

Yes, i know that Red Dog recommended not buying print versions of the Technical Manual yet. What can i say? I spend lots of time on the toilet and like the extra content. Enjoy the bathroom reading!!

Did you receive the manuals yet? Wanted to be sure they turned out as expected before ordering, Thanks!

Should be arriving on thursday. I'll be sure to post when i get them.

Wow! We've exceeded our post quota for the year!

Hope all is well. How old are the kids now? Late 20's?? Probably not but it seems like forever since I flew with you guys. Hit me up if you ever want to go up again. I really appreciate you taking the time to get the "cost effective" manuals out.

Jason, i think you're good to go. Mine look ok.

Awesome!

I'll put my order in tonight after work. Thanks again!
