HeyChief Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Installed on the Pilots and Co-Pilots yokes, before the installation of the approach plate holders. 73, Rex We still had those on MCH 84-0475 when I was crew chief. Until some D*&% beater got his hands on mine and took them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSgtRet Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 My memory is somewhat hazy but remember some of these as being silver and black instead of "in color". And, yes, I remember hearing a CC bi***ing about them being gone after his plane came back from a TDY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEFEGeorge Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I've got one of them in color. Pretty nice. Not sure where I "found" it many years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wombat Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I have one too that will look nice on my brand-new-never-installed pilot's control yoke :-) I have been trying to find someone to make copies but the last price I had was around $200 a piece based on an order of 100. An poor quality imitation was sold on e-bay last year for about $30. The seller insisted mine is a fake and his was real. Mine still has Mr Lockheed's brown paper stuck to the back. Mine was from 3216, the last Aussie A model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GVS Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 "A" model 531's co pilot's yoke medallion had been removed and a C130 in profile with cumulous clouds in the background was etched on it.Looked real nice and was still on the acft. when I left it in '65.
