Re: part to identify
They look like a set of wing or fuselage 'structural trueness' sight gauges to me.
It was a quick and simple test to see if the pilot bent (overstressed) the wings or tail of the aircraft. The wrench is a wrench. Bronc I really wish I knew the actual dimensions of these things. |

Re: part to identify
And a little background (his)story of the parts... is also appreciated.
Any connection with your former posts? ClinA-78 |

Re: part to identify
Hi Tolesa,
as ClinA78 points out, it would be nice to have some background about this part: is it a wreck that you found ? where ? what is the story behind : (if known): what happened ? when ? why ? etc.. It is always nice to catch the human dimension of an aircraft. All best GC |

Re: part to identify
Gilles, hello, this part comes from a former Luftwaffe airport, was given to me by a former civilian employee when he was cleaning up in the garage. I don't know more about him, unfortunately. I suppose it's from a plane that was there during the war because the man worked at the airport since 1946 and found a fragment of the same year.
