Hi Rob-

John Lane and his guys got the PV-2 drawings from the National Air and Space Museum I believe. I wasn't involved in ordering them. I know that it took some time to get the last roll produced, but after some pressure it did show up. I think there are like nineteen rolls for the PV-2. I did get my O-52 microfilm from the NASM in about two weeks if I recall. I would give the NASM at Garber a call and see if they can help.
