Hi All,

At Greg's invitation, some pic's of recently disposed of military equipment.
Mostly Navigation gear.

First up is a P10 Compass, Serial No 6A/1671, as used in everything from Lancasters & Spitfires down to Tiger Moths.
The guy that bought it is restoring two Tiger's, and buys up such bits to trade them for other 'hard to find' aviation bits.

Best regards

John

Top View.

All the lume has gone from the cross hairs, and the 'N' 'S' indicators have lost their colour.
The bowl is still full of fluid though, no air bubbles.
Still even orientated correctly to North.

Cool images. Someplace around the house is one of these with a Canadian C broad arrow. I'll have to find it.

Best regards,
Greg
