The book, Service Manual: Aeronca Champion Model 7A, represents a reproduction of the original revised service manual dated April 1, 1946.  Approximately 8,000 sport-trainer, two-seat Aeronca Champion aircraft were produced after World War II.  Of the many two seat light aircraft produced, few could take the beating that the Aeronca Champion could.  It was relatively inexpensive in initial cost, in maintenance, repair and operation.  Just as important, it was easy to fly and capable of being used to teach a student the required knowledge of flying.  With the advent of the G.I. Bill during World War II, it was felt that many individuals would want to learn to fly during the postwar period all paid for through the G.I. Bill.  While the anticipated numbers of individuals never materialized, enough did to prompt a need for postwar two-seat training aircraft.  The Aeronca Champion was one of the best light aircraft to be used in basic flight training.  The original service manual was designed to aid owners, operators and repairmen in protecting and maintaining the Aeronca Champion Model 7A.  All engineering and service data relevant to caring for an Aeronca Champion Model 7A is summarized in this manual.  As the service manual "foreword" concludes, "it has been published to aid you in receiving the utmost pleasure and trouble-free operation from your Aeronca Champion".  The table of contents for this service manual include the following sections: 1) General Description; 2) Specification and Performance Data; 3) Rigging Instructions; 4) Center of Gravity Data; 5) Wing Frame Information; 6) Wing Frame Drawing; 7) Fuselage Frame Information; 8) Fuselage Frame Drawing; 9) Fairing Installation Information; 10) Fairing Installation Drawing; 11) Control System Information; 12) Control System Drawing; 13) Installation Hand Brake Drawing; 14) Fixed Equipment Information; 15) Fixed Equipment Drawing; 16) Landing Gear Group Information; 17) Brake and Wheel Drawing; 18) Landing Gear and Tailwheel Drawings; 19) Tail Surfaces Information; 20) Tail Surfaces Drawings; 21) Fuel System Information; 22) Fuel System Drawing; 23) Engine Installation Information; 24) Engine Installation Drawing; 25) Safety Information; 26) Cowl and Covering Information; 27) General Explosion Drawing; 28) Do's and Don'ts and 29) Lubrication Chart.  In addition to an informative text and aircraft system specifications, this service manual for the Aeronca Champion Model 7A includes 8 black and white vintage photographs and 14 black and white illustrations.  This publication also includes two pages of scaled drawings acquired by the original owner of this service manual reproduction that would certainly prove useful to anyone interested in modeling the Aeronca Champion Model 7A.  This book is 45 pages and is in like-new condition.  This publication was originally produced by the Aeronca Aircraft Corporation of Middletown, Ohio.  Reproduction publishing date unknown.  Original publication date of April 1, 1946.
