Hello!  I am planning to write an accurate flight simulator for the Apollo
Lunar Module.  This program is targeted for the Apple Macintosh.  My goal
is to present as accurate a pilot's eye view of the landing process as
possible.  Additionally, pre-planned systems failures are to be incorporated
in the simulation management routines.

The primary question I have to ask is; Where do I find information on LM
flight instrumentation, control systems, and flight characteristics?  If
somebody has an old set of LM manuals, that would probably do.  Right now,
I have nothing but the idea, and the desire to implement it.

Thanks!
