Still clearing out stuff on my wife's orders. I have two vintage APR manual flight computers from the 1970's I used in my younger years.

These look super cool although not even sure what they are - assuming a pilots version of a slide rule type of thing? :geek:

Would think you would probably do a lot better selling these on eBay, with a national audience of potential buyers, and since they will fit in an envelope shipping will be cheap.

GLWS.

They are exactly what you think they are! Today you get the same thing in a small hand held computer version.

Anyhow, Ebay has too many fees, and then you have to use PayPal which is more fees. On top of that you have to go to the post office and wait in line. I'm not really after making any money. Over the past few years I've run across a couple pilots on NVShooters. I can't remember who they were though. I just thought someone locally might like them for nostalgia.

Save them. They don’t take up much space. Their value will only go up. Tell the wife it’s an investment.
I think a movie prop/costume house would love this stuff.
