I've not looked at this one yet, but from the title it has something to do with the Saturn V control systems.
Control System Optimization for Saturn 5 Launch Vehicles Using Gradient Techniques, Final Report

Located a very interesting document dealing with the options for powering the LM during the proposed AAP lunar missions (Durations 1-14 days).
Covered are fuel cells, solar panels, batteries and a turbine powered by the left over fuel in the descent stage.
See:
Electrical Power Systems Study for an Augmented Lunar Module
(59pg, 5.4mb)
I have located some documentation dealing with the fuel cell shown in the attached illustration. It seems to have been considered as a power source for AAP missions.
AAP fuel cell program, phase 2
(160pg, 64mb)
I've finally managed to find some documentation on the hypergolic turbine proposed as a possible LM power source.
The hypergolic reciprocating engine electrical power system and its application to the lunar excursion module

I've managed to turn up the G & N documentation on AS-204 & 205, the planned Apollo 1 & 2 flights, includes a list of navigation stars.

That's an interesting one!
There seem to be two copies of it, I've downloaded the other copy. Turned out to be exactly the same as the doument I linked to above.
Information on what was going to be done on unflown missions (The original Apollo 14/15, Apollo 1) is rather thin on the ground even though I know that considerable planning must have gone into those missions... That said I've found some interesting material on Apollo 6 that I'm going through.
I have located two other AS-204(a) flight related documents.
1.
Flight crew abort mode selection charts for AS-204a
2.
Spacecraft Operational Abort and Alternate Mission Studies for AS-204A. Volume 1: Abort Studies

A North American/Rockwell study into the loads that would have been imposed if NASA had decided to de-orbit Skylab. The documents final appendix (Appendix E) includes the switch settings and commands input into the simulators CMC (A Raython 708 running Skylark 48).

The NTRS has had a
major
upload. It's going to take a while for the 'data mole' to fully sort out what has been added but here is one sample document:
Apollo guidance computer program block 1 /100/ and block 2 Final report, 25 Jul. - 31 Dec. 1969
(110 pg 66mb)
I have also seen one document with Apollo
19
in the abstract...

I'm still looking through it. There are 10 pages of on-line documents from June the 9th with 'Apollo' in the title to go through. The decision to eliminate the old 'pick a decade' means of searching and replacing it with 'enter date range' is really slowing things down. But here are some more that looked interesting (Note: I'm away from my normal computer and have not looked at these yet):
1.
Detailed crew procedures for powered flight evaluation of the translunar injection maneuver - Project Apollo
(33pg, 9.4mb)
2.
Apollo abort summary document Mission F /AS-505/106/ Final report
(67pg, 24.1mb)
3.
Preliminary backup abort procedures for aborts occurring during translunar injection - Project Apollo
(25pg, 6.8mb)

Still slowly working through that big update from June 9.
One item I've found that could be very useful is a copy of the preliminary re-entry procedures for Apollo 7.
Apollo entry summary document - Mission C /SA-205, S/C-101/
(88pg 48mb)
Another is a document discussing the results of simulated failures of two engines in the S-Ic stage during launch
An analysis of the performance capability and vehicle dynamics of the Saturn 5 launch vehicle for two-engine-out malfunctions. Project Apollo
(51pg, 24mb)
Finally, a document dealing with entry requirements for Block I Apollo missions.
Entry corridor definition and SM/RCS deorbit requirements for Apollo block 1 earth orbit missions. Project Apollo
(38pg 24mb)
