This
offer is for a vintage Wing Flap Position Indicator made by General Electric Type DJ-17 Model 8DJ17ABE, as appeared in the Co-Pilot's Panel on the post WW2-era Boeing B-50D Superfortress Very Heavy Bomber. See photo of the Co-Pilots Panel of a B-50D from its flight manual, showing the position of this indicator with a red dot. Not yet confirmed, but this may have also been used on the Boeing C-97 Stratofreighter and KC-97 Stratotanker since they are brethren to the B-50 and shared many technologies. Please note that seller does not represent that this specific instrument was actually removed from any aircraft cited in the description, but that any documentation referenced here is evidence that it is the same type number and/or manufacturer's part number, used in these aircraft, or if such numbers are not available, the item closely resembles photos of the aircraft's instrument panel.
