fredd3039 Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 (edited) I am looking for a copy of "Building Simulated Aircraft Instrumentation". I will pay $150 for an actual copy of the book Send me a PM if you have a copy to sell. Edited July 12, 2012 by EtherealN 1,8
EtherealN Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Note that even though the book is sold out, it is still quite likely illegal to distribute scans (unless they have been specifically authorized by Mike). I would suggest anyone considering this should definitely talk directly to Mike and see if he either has progress towards making another print run, or if he can sell you a PDF of it.

metalnwood Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 If I was Mike and valued my IP there wouldnt be a PDF distributed of it. I would guess thats why he never had one. With a small specialised thing like that a sale of a PDF could mean the end of a lot of sales.
fredd3039 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 Sorry You are right of course. I apologize. Thanks for editing the message.

There are ways of DRMing PDF's, but don't know how feasible it is for a "mom'n'pop" to use, I guess this depends a lot on whether he will actually end up making a new print run - apparently he has no such plans right now but might consider it in the future.

fredd3039 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 I actually spoke to Mike about it and he said no more print runs. There is too much in the workings right now with other projects and he wants to change alot of info in the book anyway. I did ask him for a PDF of the book and offered to pay him but he does not have one
