Hi all. I was short on panel space for my air gizmo and didn't like the options. I made a holder for the gizmo that would mount on the panel without blocking much above glare shield, and was easy to remove to take the gps home. I'm a little too low in the picture, but will modify and raise it about a half inch. Moe
The fifth image is after raising the bracket one half inch. Works good now.

I believe it is some model of a slave gyro. The airplane was operated way north years ago, I'm guessing that is when it was installed. I will do some investigation and get back on that. It does still work. The bulk of it is mounted in the hat tray, I bet it weighs too much to be worth having! I'll get back with more info. Moe

Ah yes, flying the Tripe on the trans-polar route! Moe, I was trained on the -400 but never did one, you?

Hi Jim, no 400 for me. Just DC-10 and A-330. I guess I enjoyed Europe more than Asia. It seemed like more variety in destination options. Moe.
I would tend to agree with you on the variety. I can't hold anything that goes to Europe right now but that is fine. The intra-Europe flying is just like domestic for us.
I'd love to see how GA flies in the far north. Especially in the AMU. The -400 handles the mag/true during overflight automatically but you flip a switch if you are landing on a true runway. I'm guessing it is and was a bit more work than that!!!
