arantxa Posted 5 October , 2019 Author Share Posted 5 October , 2019 Or what plane would have used this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
researchingreg Posted 6 October , 2019 Share Posted 6 October , 2019 The most common aircraft used by U.S. Aero Squadrons was the Airco DH4. I would imagine a signals unit would have used this aircraft (4846 of these aircraft were built in the US under licence from De HavilandHowever I can't confirm that the altimeter was used in this aircraft, but it is the most likely.

researchingreg Posted 6 October , 2019 Share Posted 6 October , 2019 I have found a demo flight of a DH4 done in 2012 on You Tube which shows the cockpit layout about 1 min 50 secs in. The Altimeter does not seem to be a Tyco Type B, however as this is a fairly modern replica it may not have the original instrument panel.
