There will be just a line of text at top of OneDrive page with a 'download' text to click on then a download dialog. Always download this PDF to your computer before opening with latest version of Acrobat Reader DC: http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/

Depending upon which web browser you use it may not be obvious that the PDF is downloading. In EDGE the download just starts. Use combination of keys Control CTRL + J together to see the download happening. In IE 11 a dialog will open at bottom of page for downloading. Similarly combo of keys will show download.

In Firefox it is not so obvious that after clicking on the download text that the PDF will start to download (to where ever the download folder is located on computer).

Crazy size, but well done for digitizing that document.

Thanks. Just for information this PDF has always been 'digitized' as such but I guess you meant that. :rolleyes: Yes there are some issues still with the PDF such as old embedded videos that will not play with Acrobat Reader DC because Adobe did not keep the promise of keeping old [video] versions of a PDF compatible with new READER versions. ACROBAT itself will play the videos but not many people have the full version.

Work started on this PDF some fifteen or so years ago so it did not happen overnight. Work stopped every now and then because of glitches in the PDF or the current ACROBAT version at the time could not deal with it all. Now in Windows 10 with the standalone Adobe Acrobat 2017 things go well but it is slow to save/resave. <sigh>

Slowly embedded videos have been put online at:
https://www.youtube.com/user/SpazSinbad2/vi...?view_as=public

which can no longer be updated with the NEW site updatable:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwqC_s6gcC...w_as=subscriber

Putting embedded videos online frees up file size for MORE text/graphic PAGES. This work is ongoing. :D The CRAZY file size was for archiving on a DVD. Do people still have computers that can burn/play DVDs? I have thought of just increasing the file size rather than keeping it at 4.4Gb but I still have ADSL2 so uploading said PDF takes some 19 hours and takes over the computer for that time which I don't appreciate. NBN has just arrived in my area but I have an ID glitch which I won't probably overcome during the COVID-19 crisis.

Circa 1979 documentary about the RAN FAA at that time aboard HMAS Melbourne during an exercise with New Zealand. It is sometimes very scripted with radio calls NO ONE would make but are there for the film, with some edits that are ???

However one may see the A4G in action along with the S2EG Trackers, Sea King ASW Helos and Wessex converted to SAR.

He's back.... For the time being this PDF will be the last probably for some time. WHY? Because I cannot edit it anymore. It is easily viewable with the latest edition of Acrobat Reader DC suitable for your operating system though.

One day soon this same PDF will be uploaded to Microsoft OneDrive however it is now on GoogleDrive. Please follow the directions for downloading, no registration required and please DO NOT CLICK any other GOOGLE shithouse suggestions because there will be tears before teatime.

This is the direct download link. No register required to use it for the new updated 4.4Gb PDF dated 25 Apr 2020 with 16,851 pages.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=13ubFm9ts_...Y-TJJiRPNkfo5oN

25apr2020A4GskyhawkRANFAAp16851.pdf (4.4Gb)

Using the link one will see a 'file too large to preview' message and underneath that is a blue DOWNLOAD button. When clicked a new screen appears with this message: "Google Drive can't scan this file for viruses. 25apr2020A4GskyhawkRANFAAp16851.pdf (4.4G) is too large for Google to scan for viruses. Would you still like to download this file?" Then Click DOWNLOAD ANYWAY blue button. And your uncle will be bob.

NEW version of this HUGE PDF at 22,004 pages is available via this DIRECT DOWNLOAD link via the EDGE browser in Windows. It won't work with FireFox in Windows10/11 for some recent update reason. About other browsers in other operating systems I have no clue.

https://1drv.ms/b/s!AuYHBzTWY83LgZV3cpi...Xk_aEg?e=Hp9oTw

Please refer to this page for extra download instructions. It is essential to download this very large PDF first before opening it with the latest version of Adobe Reader DC 64bits.

The PDF at this 'spazsinbad page' is an OLD version. The direct download link above is the most recent version of this PDF. Here is the first page JPG.
