WW2 German Luftwaffe Wendehorizont – ARTIFICIAL HORIZON – Me262 Fw190 Me109

You are bidding on an EXCELLENT example of 100% ORIGINAL WW2 German Luftwaffe Wendehorizont (Turning Horizon), Fl. 22411-1! This type of horizon was commonly used in the Me262, Fw190, Me163, Ho229, and others!This instrument measured the turn angle and side-slip of the aircraft, relayed the current horizon. It was connected to the main electrics (Umformer) and was located on the main instrument panel on many German fighters.Made of aluminum, this horizon dates around 1944, and would have been used right up until the end of the war.95% of the original finish remains, with some slight marks and wear due to the age, and the data label is 95% intact!The dial also still glows when UV light is applied.Itretains the original electrical plug and wiring, and the locking mechanism functions PERFECTLY. Some of the luminous paint is worn off behind the spirit level, but that is quite common and does not detract. I have shown its location in the las photos. Would make a FANTASTIC addition to any collection, restoration project, or panel re-build!
