Biographical/Historical Note:
A native of Troy, Ohio, Bill graduated from Troy High School in 1951. He was employed by
General Motors Aero Products for fifteen months before going on to Spartan School of
Aeronautics in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he received FAA Airframe and Power Plant certificates,
as well as a Private Pilot’s certificate in 1954.
He worked as an aircraft mechanic for Southern Ohio Aviation Company, an Aero
Commander/Navion dealership in the Dayton area for seventeen years, the last twelve years as
mechanic/crew-chief. He worked on corporate twin engine aircraft for many large companies
and famous people such as: WLW Broadcasting Co., Anchor-Hocking Glass Co. United States
Forestry Service, State of Ohio, State of West Virginia, State of Kentucky, Jack Nicklaus, the
Kettering family, and was the mechanic for the jet airplane used by the Mercury Astronauts.
Bill was always looking for a better, easier way to do things. In 1963, he developed a tool used
to jack-up an aircraft so as not to damage the plane. For this he received special recognition
from the FAA and was the recipient the Outstanding Aviation Mechanic’s Award for the State of
Ohio. Only one Ohioan is chosen each year to receive this prestigious award.

After receiving his teaching credentials from University of Cincinnati in 1971, he joined the staff
at the newly opened Montgomery County Joint Vocational School (now known as Miami Valley
Career Technology Center) as an instructor in their FAA Certified Aircraft Mechanic’s program.
It was during his tenure there that he gained certification as a Designated Mechanic’s Examiner.
After twenty-three years in education, he retired in 1994. He had the privilege of training and
mentoring many fine students, five of whom earned first place awards in the State and National
VICA (Vocational Industrial Clubs of America) Skills Contests receiving scholarships for further
training, fully equipped tool boxes and great job offers. He was able to place students in jobs in
the aircraft field. He maintained contact with former students over the years, often being able to
help them up-grade to better jobs.
Scope and Content The William Laufer Collection is a collection of aircraft maintenance materials used by Mr.
Laufer during his career as an aircraft mechanic and as a teacher at the Miami Valley Career
Technology Center. The collection consists of training maintenance manuals for aircraft, aircraft
engines, and a wide variety of aircraft parts. Also included are parts catalogs and sales brochures
for aircraft, engines, propellers, and aircraft parts. The collection is divided into eight series.
Series I, Aircraft Maintenance Training (1943-1988) contains material used to train aircraft
mechanics. A large part of this series are training manuals prepared by the Aviation
Maintenance Foundation, Inc. during the 1970s. Also included in this series are manuals for
military training courses developed by both the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force. The series ends
with a variety of training manuals developed by the aircraft industry or individuals.
Series II, Federal Guidance and Technical Orders (1919-1986) is divided into two sections. The
first section contains guidance issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or its
predecessor, the Civil Aeronautics Authority (CAA). Within this section the guidance is
grouped according to the issuing agency. The second section is Technical Orders issued by a
variety of agencies for the overhaul or maintenance of aircraft or their parts.
Series III, Aircraft Manuals, Parts Catalogs, and Sales Brochures (1928-1998) is the largest of
the eight series. This series is organized according to manufacturer and then chronologically
within each manufacturer. Twenty-one manufacturers are listed in this section with the largest
being Beechcraft, Cessna, Douglas, Piper, and WACO. Of note for researchers are the Service
Bulletins and Parts Catalogs for the Douglas DC-3/C-47.
Series IV, Aircraft Engine Maintenance Manuals, Parts Catalogs, and Sales Brochures (1932-
1992) is organized by manufacturer and then chronologically within each manufacturer.
Fourteen manufacturers are listed in this section with the largest being the Continental Aircraft
Engine Company, Pratt and Whitney Aircraft, and Wright Aeronautical Corporation (Curtiss-
Wright Aeronautical Corporation). Along with maintenance and overhaul manuals, there are a
large number of Parts Catalogs for the aircraft engines, particularly Wright Aeronautical
Engines.
Series V, Propeller Maintenance Manuals, Parts Catalogs, and Sales Brochures (1937-1977) is
organized by manufacturer and then chronologically within each manufacturer. Six propeller
4
manufacturers are listed in this series including Aeroproducts, Beech, Curtiss, Hamilton
Standard, Hartzell, and McCauley.
Series VI, General Aircraft Parts Catalogs, Maintenance Manuals, and Sales Brochures (1938-
1993) is another very large series with forty-four manufacturers listed. The series is organized
by manufacturer and then chronologically with manufacturer. The types of parts included are
spark plugs, aircraft hoses and fittings, radios and communication systems, magnetos, fuel
injection systems, generators and electric starters, aircraft tires and breaks, batteries, landing
gear, navigation lights, automatic pilots, and gyroscopes. The manufacturer with the largest
representation in this series is Bendix Corporation, including Eclipse-Pioneer Electric Starters
and Generators and Bendix-Scintilla Magnetos.
Series VII, General Aviation Information (1923-1997) is divided into eleven sections. The first
sections includes aeronautical charts for a variety of cities/regions in the United States most of
which are dated during the 1960s. The second section is WACO Aircraft General Information
contains general information about WACO aircraft. Mr. Laufer was a volunteer at the WACO
Historical Society and Museum. The third section is general information on the Wright Brothers
which contains serval brochures. The fourth section contains Aircraft Mechanic Publications
such as Pocket Manuals for aircraft mechanics and similar information. The fifth section
contains Aviation Publications produced by a variety of people and organizations. The sixth
section contains newsletters for several different organizations. The seventh section contains
information on Dayton Air Shows from 1974 to 1979. The eight section contains information on
the Aviation Hall of Fame from 1968 to 1975. Mr. Laufer was a charter member of the
organization. The ninth section contains general information on a variety of topics including the
Curtiss OX-5 aircraft engine, magazine articles, and information on several aviators including
Jimmy Doolittle and Roscoe Turner. Of particular note is a file on Charles Lindbergh, including
a newspaper article “And Then I Jumped” by Lindbergh. The tenth section contains wall charts
and aviation posters providing information on aviation. The eleventh, and last section, contains
other information, such as the “Mechanic’s Creed,” log books, and a 3-ring binder containing
general information about commuter aircraft – primarily photographs and typed information
about different commuter aircraft..
Series VIII, Audio and Visual Material (1929-1997) contains VHS tapes, 8 mm film, 16 mm
film, two photograph albums containing photographs of WACO aircraft and the WACO factory,
photograph of aircraft, and aviation artwork. The VHS tapes and film primarily contain footage
of WACO Glider Aircraft, WACO aircraft in general, and National Air Races footage. The
aviation artwork includes aviation art produced by Leach Corporation, Thompson Products, Inc.,
and Phillips Petroleum. There are also 13 color advertisements for a variety of aviation-related
products by a variety of companies. The last item in the series is a Vehicle Flag produced by G.
Q. Security Parachutes, Inc.
