My 66 180C POH was seeing better days, but was still in readable condition.
I scanned it into my computer and using a software utility called clickbook printed it in book format (2 pages per letter size page and both sides) and put it into a small loose leaf binder. I also copied the PIH, all the 337s, W&B and other official paperwork. Now I have 2 (actually 3 if you count the original which is in my firebox with my logs) copies and the are totally legible and maintainable. You might try doing the same thing Tom "Marco Leon" mleon(at)optonline.net wrote in message ... How does one go about replacing a POH in poor condition with another "official" copy? I've been contemplating slowly re-doing the POH for my Warrior but nixed the idea not knowing the regs. A Google search showed up negative on this query.

In article , "James M. Knox"
wrote: Yes, make another call and make sure that you are getting a POH -- i.e. it will have YOUR serial number in it. Maybe they have gotten reasonable on their prices, but somehow I doubt it. The $33 does seem quite reasonable for the non-seralized version of the POH, but that is not a legal replacement. I finally got over to my airplane. The replacement POH I bought from Piper has my serial number on it. -- Bob Noel |

I was thinking about that and I actually did that for the page in worst
condition (the cover page with the serial number). I'm not sure as to its legality since it is a reproduction. "Tom Nery" wrote in message news:34bXb.309294$na.462381@attbi_s04...

Yes, I do have a POH and not a PIM. I fly a 1978 Piper Warrior II. I called
Piper in Vero Beach Florida and the rep told me a replacement POH with the serial number is under $100. He still has to get back to me though. Marco "James M. Knox" wrote in message ...

I suspect most ramp check guys won't care. True, having the original at home is of no legal bearing, but it does allow you to (should it EVER come up) put it back in the plane. Just don't throw it away. [Laminate the durn thing, if you want to.] ----------------------------------------------- James M.

For a hundred bucks, make up a cheat sheet(s) with the pertinent info for
operation, v speeds, W/B, etc. to keep in the side pocket... Put the tattered remains of the POH in a zip lock baggie and stuff it in with the other documents... The rules say there must be a POH, period... There is not one regulation regarding condition... Spend the other $99 on something you need... denny "Marco Leon" mleon(at)optonline.net wrote in message ... Yes, I do have a POH and not a PIM. I fly a 1978 Piper Warrior II.
