Description
Apollo: Set of Nine General Motors / AC Electronics Apollo Guidance & Navigation System Training Manuals. A superb group of nine 8.5" x 11" spiral-bound Apollo Guidance and Navigation System Study Guides, produced by the AC Electronics Division of General Motors, the primary subcontractor responsible for the design and manufacturing of the Apollo spacecraft's Guidance and Navigation (G&N) subsystems. These internally issued manuals were used to train engineers, support personnel, and NASA contractors on the design, operation, and integration of the Apollo Command Module (CM) and Lunar Module (LM) guidance systems. As follows.Block I (Series 100) G&N System Course - Command Module:
G&N System Familiarization (16-Hour Course) - AC Spark Plug / GM Electronics Division.
G&N Hardware (24-Hour Course)
Hardware Functions & Mechanization (40-Hour Course)

Lunar Module (LM) Primary Guidance, Navigation, and Control System (PGNCS)
System Mechanization
Computer Utility Programs

The materials illustrate the depth of industrial training and the remarkable complexity of Apollo's navigation architecture, from the inertial platforms of the Command Module to the Lunar Module's independent PGNCS systems. Often sold individually and very rare in large sets. Age related wear including one manual with separated cover (cover still present). Overall very good.
