c.1949 Vintage Aircraft Part
SMITH'S AIR DRIVEN
ARTIFICIAL HORIZON
(Attitude Indicator)
Made in England - With Paperwork
[ FEATURES & DETAILS... ]
This lovely part dates to 1949 or 1950. It is in beautiful vintage condition, with no visible damage or signs of abuse, neglect, water incursion, etc. It is being sold as-is, since I do not have the means of testing it for you.
It measures approx. 6 5/8" long and 4 3/8" diameter.
It comes with its original paperwork, which includes the 11-page Installation & Maintenance Instructions (no pages missing).
The above is my good-faith attempt to disclose all noteworthy issues. Keep in mind that vintage/antique items always show their age. (Don't we all!?) It would be impossible to mention every tiny detail, so please expect that there will be something about this item (or lot) that's not perfect and may need touch-up.
PLEASE SUPERSIZE ALL PHOTOS, AND ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE offerDING/BUYING. I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER.
