CORRY PENNA AERO THROTTLE THAT NEEDS TO BE IDENTIFIED

[Ruben]

I found this Corry Penna Aero Throttle from antiquary shop in Milan today, but I don’t know from which aircraft was belong to. Somebody could help me?

The logo would simply be Aero, Location would be Corry, Pennsylvania.

Thanks! Any idea from which aircrafts used it?

Sorry,no.

Since it has a throttle, mixture and prop lever, it's going to be a single engine aircraft with a variable pitch propeller. With no military data plate present or other markings to indicate military usage, I'm thinking this will have a civilian application post-WWIIish, but that's a guess.

You right about single engine. I did a lot of research and come out that this throttle was mounted on different military aircrafts T-6, P40, P47. This throttle should be one of the first model. A one point they add a clutch lever. Probably this one was on T-6 aircrafts used by Italian Air Force. I found different pictures of other similar throttles.

I forgot to post the picture of the superior part.

I add the results of my research for other users. In the pictures below two different P-40 aircrafts throttles with friction knob and without. Clearly are two different versions of P-40.

Here below a brass plate for P-40 throttles. Look the project fiche on the back of the plate. This goods are sold for a series of aircrafts.
