So my buddie show up the other day and says he has something for me. He did not know what it was but know I love aviation stuff. Ends up being an old fight computer. A Dalton Dead Reckoning Flight Computer model G. It has seen some serious wear and tear and is not fully complete but is still a cool bit of history. It would have been strapped to the pilots leg and would have been able to make quick calculations base on altitude, miles to help set course. Cool stuff especially for the bargain price of $5.

Here is a copy of a complete original. It would have also had a notebook clipped to the flip out panel for notes and corrections.
