Hello, pretty new here but just starting a scratch built 4-place (at least scratch for now). I bought the three volume builder manual but on the website, he mentions that it includes a cover, a table of contents, and an index. Those are missing, so I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to get them. Thanks!

Did you reach out to Eric? -
I did, I sent an email I think about a week ago. I haven’t heard a response, though. Is Eric on this forum?John Wiltberger

Sometimes, Enewton57. You might also try the phone number he has listed, which is (228)331-0037Comment

Thanks! I sent him that email, but maybe calling would help. I’m not a big phone guy (probably my generation), and it’s not really an emergency, but if I get too bored maybe I’ll do that. I ended up making my own cover page and tab-based ToC, but it’d be nice to have something official.John Wiltberger

I own the volumes you speak of, and as you probably discovered by now each file is a package of multiple PDFs. If I recall correctly the first PDF in each volume contains the title page and chapter cover pages.Mark

How long ago did you purchase them? Because mine weren’t a package, it was a single pdf. All three volumes were each just a single PDFOriginally posted by Chewie View PostJohn Wiltberger

I purchased my wings CD in 2014 and it is arranged as a package of attached pdfs including cover, instructions, labels etc. But I purchased the fuse and finish manuals last year and they were arranged as an outline in one single pdf. The latter two did not have the cover, labels etc that I can see. Maybe this was a mistake?Mark

Yeah I think so. My wings PDF is the same as the fuselage and finishing, no tabs or cover page or index. I sent another follow up email, but haven’t heard yet. Again, not a huge deal for me, just realized it after the fact.John Wiltberger

Maybe the index comes when you buy the physical manual as my PDFs are chapters bunched together as mentioned above...Originally posted by johwiltb View Post
the manuals need a freshening up....there are tons of tips and tricks that have popped up over time that should be linked ....builders have made you tube videos ...etc......
Yes a plane can be built from the manuals and plans....but without this forum it would be an uphill battle for most builders...myself included...

Just a quick update. Heard back from Eric yesterday, he said he had a catastrophic computer failure and lost the indexes, ToC, and covers, but he’ll keep looking for them. Maybe if anyone has them and wants to send them to him, he could use the help! Email that worked for him was eric@bhtailwheels.comJohn Wiltberger

Hello everyone, I'm Mariano from Argentina and new to the forum, I'm about to start with the Bearhawk 4 place project.
Some time ago I bought the plans from a reseller, I saw that another colleague was looking for some covers and index,
someone could tell me if the material I have is complete? In the answer I would appreciate if you leave me any address e-mail Thank you. MarianoComment

Welcome to the board..
do you know the Bearhawk version you have a or b? The plans come with about 33 big sheets and a 50 page book....
did the seller sell you the build manual? It’s 3 PDF files....those build manuals are separate from the plans and bought separately
tell us us what you got with the sale
