Description: Rare original and in near mint condition, 1956 Pilot’s Handbook AVQ-10 Weather Radar Manufactured By Radio Corporation Of America RCA. It measures 5 ¾” x 8 ¾” and is complete with all 18 pages. Heavy vinyl like covers. No bends or writing and super clean. NO reserve. Please note: All of the airplane airline items I am listing over next few days came from the estate and collection of a 40 year veteran pilot for American Airlines who retired in 1991. All of the luggage labels he collected (many different besides American) I had to place between 2 pieces of glass to photograph to keep flat as after removing them from slots in folder, they tended to curl so you might see glare on some of them from lights. I will not invoice until you tell me you are ready in case you wish to combine purchases from different nights and yes, I will combine items to get you best possible price on shipping.

This is why my first class shipping is $4.75. I place cards in plastic bags and between to pieces of stiff cardstock and place in manila mailing envelope and write please do not bend on both sides. It weighs 2 to 4 ounces (those weights all cost the same to ship) and with insurance ($1.70) per $100.00 value) it cost very close or more to the $4.75 total shipping across the USA. I make nothing on shipping but protect these items the best I can without going overboard and having to charge more.

Please Note: We are not sure about the accuracy of eBays shipping calculator but if it is off, we will adjust to correct amount on invoice with no extra fees, just what the postal service quotes. Please do not peanilize me or other sellers for slow shipping because when it leaves our hands and gets into postal or other shipper, it is their responsibility. We do not hand deliver goods from our location to yours but we DO get items shipped by the day after payment unless it is a weekend. And please also note that we charge actual shipping based on distance from east coast to west coast and should it cost less, we always refund the buyer unless the difference is under $1.00 and 90% of the time, we pay extra to insure the item. With eBay’s and PayPal’s ever increasing fees to sellers, we are desperately trying to maintain the high level of quality of product, speedy shipping and great packing that has permitted us to attain eBay’s seller status with special icon at top of our listings. With that distinction comes a small but important % discount on our sellers fees....and every little bit helps. These are based on the star system they have in the feedback area now and if you should have any problems with a purchase from us, we would appreciate the opportunity to fix is before you leave a less than stellar star rating. This small discount is what has kept us from having to place reserves on items which benefits you, the buyer.

All my items are guaranteed original. I do not believe in owning or selling reproductions. If you have any doubts at all, you are welcome to return item for a full refund including shipping.

I am listing some other interesting items in different catagories so please see my (view seller's other auctions) and combine to save on shipping.
