My cousin was here, helping a friend sort through personal effects of a family member, he was into history and aviation, and I was offered some of his books, a couple of framed aircraft photos and this;



the "altimeter" is actually a clock and the "airspeed indicator" is a thermometer, the outer ring show the temp is Fahrenheit and the inner ring indicates Celsius.

So, a novelty clock and thermometer made to look like avionics instruments? Pretty cool.

I keep an altimeter sitting just above my computer monitor.

I set the altitude each day and it gives me the atmospheric pressure.

One of our members (who, until I know otherwise, I'll keep anonymous) saw this post and generously sent me one as a karma.

This place is incredible, but we knew that didn't we.
