Hi Everbody!

Here are more helpful and resourceful Quick Reference documents from my Grandfather Tom Cassutt's aviation & aircraft design archives.

They cover Weights of Various Metals, Liquids, Petroliums, Gases, & Materials and they come from the TWA Constellation 749 Flight Crew Operating Manual from when Tom was an International Senior Pilot with TWA for 25yrs.

They also include the Gravity value for each kind of metal, gas, petrolium, liquid, material, etc.

Tom also added a personal note listing all the most commonly used Nail sizes along with the weight (density) and gravity value for each size.

There's also some great Conversion Charts included that are great Quick Reference documents for your archives and could come in handy. I'm sure a lot of this information, you'll already know b/c you're all extremely intelligent, but Tom seemed to always leverage these Quick References throughout his life and it benefited him, therefore I believe it's something good to release for those that want to use them as well.
