Description :

We think this is a pitot tube from a jet - which one and where, we don't know. It is mounted onto a solid wood base and is quite heavy. The almost illegible brass plaque on the base reads "Frank Kreidler - In appreciation from the flight deck - August 1,1984".  We don't know who Frank was, but we assume it may have been a retirement gift, or to memorialize a close-call; we leave that up to its new owner to research. Even without the backstory, our client deemed it a great piece of flying memorabilia and had it next to his other desktop models.
Dimensions : 20 in L x 7.5 in H
