Last night, I had to buy some appliances for the house. and in order to make way for the new arrivals, I had to rip out this old cabinet in the basement.
As i am destroying the cabinet, I realize that it was actually NOT a cabinet in the truest sense of the word, but it was fashioned out of 2 old wooden crates. This made my job tougher, much tougher. But I had my tools and went to work. :)
As i took the planks of wood apart, I realize one of them said "AIRSPEED INDICATORS" on it, along with a bunch of other numbers and it was dated 01.19.51
How cool is that? Even my house was made with aviation parts!
I have to take a photo and show you. I preserved the wooden planks in order to show. My guess is these may have one housed parts for Grumman planes, only b/c the house was built in 1950 and Republic is nearby.
So now, FRED and whoever is interested, you're gonna have a bit of homework. You have to figure out what planes these were used in.
I'll post photos as soon as I get the other busy work out of hte way.
wicked!!! I think there is also plutonium in the house...probably also from WW2
