I thanks for the information. Do you know of any repair or maintance manuals available?
C. It appears that the AAC Mk14, USAF AN5851, and the US Navy MkV were effectively the same sextant. You can get an operating handbook for the A14 from Paul Brewer for 5.00 GBP and a servicing handbook for 8.00 GBP. See http://64.34.157.150/~g4osj431//Text/Catalogue.html . Then go to HOME at the bottom. Paul reads NavList, so he might contact you, or you can get him via his email, paul@g4osj.co.uk , which is already in the public domain via his website. Dave
