Over the years I've been creating a WANTED list of game documentation, and I thought maybe you guys can help. Here it is:
- B-17 Flying Fortress -> Several places have PDFs, but I have the feeling they're not the whole manual. FOUND
- FIFA 95 to 97
- Harrier Jump Jet -> Only found a TXT controls list.
- Kick Off 3
- Navy Strike -> Flight sim from the makers of "Airpower". FOUND
- Robocop 3 -> Found a French version. Does anyone have an English one?
- SkyNet
- The Games: Summer Challenge FOUND
- The Games: Winter Challenge
- Zeppelin: Giants of the Sky -> Found a German version. Does anyone have an English one? FOUND
Thanks in advance.

- B-17 Flying Fortress -> Several places have PDFs, but I have the feeling they're not the whole manual.
Indeed. It's tech manual, and it clearly states that it differs from "main" one.
But it's your lucky day! I found you high-quality scan of manual. :) Take it here (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1oNVOclYFtbR6e-YA_CP7MaYpAjPXnHYo). :) Be aware that I will delete it there eventually, but will submit it to old-games.ru too, so they will have it.
- Kick Off 3
Abandonware-France (https://www.abandonware-france.org/ltf_manuels/manuels.php?id_manuel=279) has it (in French, unfortunately).
Lemonamiga (http://www.lemonamiga.com/games/docs.php?id=925) has text version, and it seems for PC and Amiga.
- Navy Strike -> Flight sim from the makers of "Airpower".
Again, french manual (https://www.abandonware-france.org/ltf_manuels/manuels.php?id_manuel=1433) is available.
Oh, and you are lucky again! Classic reload (https://classicreload.com/sites/default/files/Navy-Strike-MANUAL.PDF) offers English version!
- SkyNet
You knew it - French (https://www.abandonware-france.org/ltf_manuels/manuels.php?id_manuel=1074).
- The Games: Summer Challenge
This time old-games.ru already has it.
Manual (https://www.old-games.ru/game/download/get.php?fileid=19475&modal=1)
Control reference (https://www.old-games.ru/game/download/get.php?fileid=19476&modal=1).
- The Games: Winter Challenge
I found two scanned versions, and made PDF for you (and old-games.ru too :). Get it here (https://drive.google.com/open?id=13IVDQxdNm7xrolmAq1fZPM8ucL8tugBX).
That's all, I fear. :(

Don't "fear", that actually went much better than I expected. Just one small thing, those "The Games: Winter Edition" manuals you uploaded are not the ones I'm looking for. They are for the Epyx game, and I'm looking for "The Games: Winter Challenge" by Accolade. It's easy to mix those two up.
Many thanks for your efforsts, and I hope the moderators are seeing this, because those manuals you uploaded are quite hard to find.

Yeah, old-games.ru noted it too. :) There are too many similar games! Winter games from Epyx, Games: Winter Edition from Epyx and Games: Winter Challenge from Accolade... Argh!
Also, old-games.ru already had one of my manuals - and it's definitely from the same source as my pictures. But pictures I found are too blurry, comparing to old-games, and old-games has it "brightened", with removed ghost text and staples signs... I wonder, what _source_ for both? :)

Thank you! The English manual for "Zeppelin" seems complete.

For those interested, I found a PDF manual for "Kick Off 3: European Challenge" at Amiga Hall of Fame (http://hol.abime.net/5127).
