Title: Grumman C-2 Greyhound
The C-2 Greyhound was a derivative of the E-2 Hawkeye, using the E-2 wings and powerplant mated to a new widened fuselage with a rear loading ramp. It’s role was logistic support to US Navy aircraft carriers (“COD – Carrier Onboard Delivery”). It first flew in 1964 and 17 examples were built between 1965 and 1968.
In 1984 the Navy ordered 39 new examples to replace the earlier airframes. These incorporated airframe improvements and updated avionics, but due to similarity with the original aircraft were known as the re-procured C-2A. The older C-2A’s were retired by 1987 and the last of the later aircraft was delivered in 1990.
This title contains two editions of the US Navy NATOPS flight manual for the Grumman C-2A Greyhound, one 1975 flight manual covering the original aircraft, and a 2002 flight manual covering the re-procured aircraft. The files have been scanned from the original flight manuals and retain any colour pages.
